In this research study, we seek to examine whether US public companies with gender diverse boards report better long-term non-financial and financial performance. Using observations from 2003 to 2012, we find that gender diversity on corporate boards has a more positive impact on a firm’s non-financial performance after controlling for the simultaneous effects of board characteristics. However, using the same model for financial performance, our findings are mixed—a positive impact on accounting measure, no impact on market measures but mixed impact on Tobin’s Q. Our findings have policy implications for regulators globally seeking to mandate gender diversity in corporate boardrooms.

董事会性别多元化与公司长期业绩

在本研究中,我们试图研究具有性别多元化董事会的美国上市公司是否在长期财务和财务方面表现更好。使用2003年至2012年的观察结果,我们发现公司董事会中的性别多样性在控制了董事会特征的同时影响之后,会对公司的非财务绩效产生更积极的影响。但是,使用相同的财务绩效模型,我们得出的结论是混杂的:对会计指标有积极影响,对市场指标没有影响,但对托宾Q则有不同的影响。我们的发现对全球监管机构要求在公司董事会中强制性别多元化的政策产生了影响。
