The GEI brings transparency to gender-related practices and policies at publicly listed companies. As investor demand for ESG data increases, the GEI represents an important opportunity for companies to appeal to today's workforce, as well as broaden their investor bases.
This year's findings provide insights and rich analysis of all gender-related data across sectors, regions, countries, leadership levels, pay and more. People are increasingly aware of the importance of setting the tone from the top. More than 60% of the 2023 GEI member companies have 30% or more women board members, and this includes ICL.
