Abstract

With the increasing attention paid to female executives, the individual characteristics of women and the diversity of an enterprise’s senior executive team play a crucial role in the performance of the enterprise. As an important indicator to measure the performance of corporate social responsibility (CSR), ESG rating also reflects an enterprise’s ability for sustainable development. This paper is an attempt to investigate the impact of the level of gender diversity of female executives and senior executive teams on the ESG rating performance of enterprises, and the results indicate that both the tenure and overseas background experiences of female executives have a positive impact on the ESG rating performance of enterprises.
