Researchers retract paper on board gender diversity and emissions performance
Get up to speed
A study of European firms from 2016 to 2022, combining panel regression, machine learning, and explainable AI methods, finds a nonlinear relationship between board gender diversity and emissions performance: emissions performance begins to improve significantly when female director representation reaches a minimum threshold of approximately 22%, and further increases in female representation beyond an optimal level of approximately 35% do not yield additional emissions performance gains.
