MORE WOMEN NEEDED TO COME ON BOARD – PUN INTENDED




Female board directors are present in just about half of TSX-listed companies;
they’re almost non-existent in smaller companies; and there’s a pretty firm correlation between gender diversity and companies with significantly larger profit margins. So why isn’t enough being done to reel more of them in? We get the stance for merit-based appointing, but right now all roads – ie. the Canadian Securities Administrators review - point to the financial benefit of recruiting more women directors. That’s right ladies, we’ve got the magic touch!
