[6]. The power subdomain [7] of the Gender Equality Index in decision-making in the private sector companies is the lowest score of Luxembourg with 32.1,
ranking 17th among 28 states [8].
Luxembourg is only above the EU countries such as Estonia, Romania, Lithuania, Slovakia, Malta, Greece, Cyprus.
Despite the effort the Grand Duchy is putting to eliminate the gender inequality on political decision-making, Luxembourg has fallen down 2 steps in the
Gender Equality Index since 2005 [9] and its progress could be defined as snail’s pace compared to the other European states.
Luxembourg’s overall score has improved with an increase of 1.1 point from 69.2 in 2019 to 70.3 in 2020 and is 2.4 points above the EU score of 67.9. However, it should be reminded that this is due to Luxembourg ranking 1st (with a score of 91.8) in the core domain titled “money” of the index as a prosperous country, which increases its overall score.
