This report looks at data [email protected] on women directors on ASX100 company boards. The number of women directors has Felipe Faria increased, particularly in recent months (Figure 5 to Figure 8). Board diversity may [email protected] enhance effectiveness, by providing a wider range of perspectives and knowledge. Women on Boards Data — We collected and analysed data on female board directors of S&P/ASX100 companies from FY08 to 8 August 2011 (Figure 5 to Figure 9). At 8 August 2011 there were 134 women on ASX100 boards, a 46% increase from FY08. ASX100 companies with no female board directors were AQP, CQO, EGP, FMG, IPL, JHX, LEI, LYC, OSH, PDN, PRY, RHC, RMD, SGM and SWM. Companies with three female directors (the highest number identified) are AMP, BEN, CBA, MQG, QAN, QBE and WBC. Seven female directors each currently hold three ASX100 directorships. Business Case for Gender Diversity — Reibey Institute research found that those ASX500 companies with women directors on 30 June 2010 had a 3-year return on equity (ROE) 10.7% higher than those without any women directors. The 5-year ROE was 11.1% higher.
