Popis: | We investigate the networks of Japanese corporate boards and its influence on the appointments of female board members. We find that corporate boards with women show homophily with respect to gender. The corresponding firms often have above average profitability. We also find that new appointments of women are more likely at boards which observe female board members at other firms to which they are tied by either ownership relations or corporate board interlocks. |
