The impact of the Board of Directors’ composition on companies’ performance
This paper studies the impact that the board of directors’ composition has on companies’
performance in the Italian market. The research has been carried out by using a sample of 10 Italian
companies, across different market sectors, over a period of 10 years (2005-2014).
The characteristics of the BoD taken into consideration are the following:
board size, board diversity (% of female directors), board independence and CEO duality.
Results from the sample data collected concluded that these factors have a statistically significant
impact on the performance of the companies that have been analysed.
