Companies with women on boards perform better, study finds Maya Oppenheim © Provided by The Independent
Having more women on company boards leads to organisations performing better, a new study has found.
The report, conducted by researchers at NEOMA Business School in the French city of Reims, discovered having more women in these senior roles leads to less excessive risk-taking and greater efficiency.
Researchers found women on boards also leads to less earnings management - which refers to wielding accounting techniques to produce financial statements which deliver an overly successful view of a firm’s position.
But the report found this is far truer for nations where there are higher levels of gender equality like Scandinavia, whereas in countries with greater gender inequality such as Japan, India, and China, female directors appear to have less effect on how a company performs.
