Statistics Gender Distribution on Boards 2015-01-02

The Board has instructed SIS Ägarservice to present statistics regarding gender distribution in Swedish listed companies' Boards as at January 2, 2015. On 2 January 2015, the proportion of elected members in all Swedish listed company boards who were women was 25.6 per cent. The EU does not count the more than 60 small and medium-sized companies and CEOs elected by shareholders’ meetings, but it does include employee representatives. According to this method of calculation, women's share of board positions is 28.7 per cent.
