Women representation on boards reached a record high last year across Singapore-listed companies, statutory boards and charities, thanks in part to enhanced regulatory frameworks. 

This is according to the latest edition of the Singapore Board Diversity Review, an annual study on gender diversity conducted by the Council for Board Diversity (CBD), released on June 3.

Compared to a decade ago, the 100 largest Singapore-listed companies by market capitalisation tripled women’s participation on boards (WOB) to 23.7% last year.
