% of Female Board Members Is a Measure of a Company’s Seriousness About Improving Its Practices

By Aki Matsumoto

  • The groups with over 30% female board members and 25%-30% have higher percentage of foreign shareholders, suggesting that overseas investor engagement drives raising the ratio and that awareness is high.
  • Groups with 0% female board members include small companies and are distant from overseas investor engagement, but are unlikely to improve practices substantially, given that they have no female executives.
  • The group with over 30% female board members had noticeably higher ROE and Tobin’sQ than those with 25%-30%, which suggests that the high ROE was highly valued by overseas investors.
