Gender diversity is in focus today on Money in the Market. Does gender diversity even matter to investors? Why should it matter? Well according to MSCI, which has been tracking gender diversity of corporate boards since 2009. Nearly 40% of constituents of the MSCI ACWI Index had at least 30% of board seats held by women, a milestone that many investors, regulators and other stakeholders have long advocated for.
