A collection of empirical and research papers on board diversity (Updated August 14, 2024)

The editorial team of the Publishing House “Virtus Interpress” has updated a list of empirical and research papers published in the Corporate Ownership and Control journal during last few years devoted to the issues of board diversity.

We hope that this collection of papers will be useful for those scholars pursuing research in the field of corporate governance (specifically related to board of directors practice and board diversity).
