Corporate Governance Women

ECGI supports gender equality in our network. We aim to make it easier for you to identify female speakers, researchers and practitioners by highlighting them on this page.

Women sitting around a board table

Evidence indicates that women in finance academia hold positions at lower-ranked institutions and are less likely to be full professors. They are also paid less, publish fewer papers, and have smaller publication networks. The gender gap only exists in research quantity, not quality but these gender gaps have been shrinking in recent years. ECGI strives to support women in our network by encouraging a minimum of 40% female speakers in our event programming, participation across our boards and committees, and pro-active identification for research member appointments.
