Aurora50 co-founder Sheikha Shamma bint Sultan bin Khalifa Al Nahyan writes in The National about the ‘Great Reset’ and what it means for UAE women in the boardroom.
Reporting on the Emirates Securities and Commodities Authority (ESCA)’s mandate to put one woman director on every UAE listed board, Asharq Business Bloomberg says that women have only taken four new seats at listed companies on the two main UAE stock exchanges in the two months since, with 96 percent of positions held by men.
The number of women in board positions rose to 77 seats in 2022, from 29 seats in 2020, The National reported, quoting Aurora50 research report Non-executive Board Careers in the UAE: A Path to Gender Balance.
