The influx of women follows new rules that require Singapore listed companies to say more about their board diversity policies. Starting from 2022, firms have to disclose their diversity targets, plans, timelines and progress in their annual reports.
Women are breaking into Singapore boardrooms at a record pace.
At the 100 largest companies listed on Singapore’s stock exchange, 36% of board appointments went to women in 2022, a record high and up from 23% in 2021, according to an annual study by the Council for Board Diversity.
