Time-Buying and Political Agendas Prevent Effective Measures to Raise the % of Female Board Members
- There is concern about how well one female board director’s opinion will be respected in management discussions among the large number of male board members.
- Since the pool of female managers in companies hasn’t grown, Corporate Governance Code will remain an “effort target” rather than a specific numerical standard for the ratio of female executives.
- The government does not want to spark discussion of a “quota system” in the “political” field, so discussions of introducing a “quota system” for female board members are not realistic.
