| Summary: | The academic debate on the strategic importance of women corporate directors is widely recognized and still open. The issue has captured the worldwide attention of policymakers, researchers and other stakeholders. Despite the growing public concern about gender diversity on corporate boards in recent years, the progress had been slow in Malaysia. By employing panel data analysis, this research aims to study whether gender diversity on corporate board in a sample of 46 FTSE100 public listed companies in Malaysia has a significant impact on the financial performance. This study cover the period 2012-2018, by controlling other board characteristics and firm characteristics in the regression analysis. |
