Abstract

The Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) metric, which has become a parameter for investors to evaluate sustainability performance, is putting increasing pressure on international technology corporates. As a result, there is an increasing demand for corporate social reporting to address gender diversity, that lies within the social spectrum of this evaluator. This paper analyses the extent and causes of the absence of gender diversity in the most recent annual ESG (CSR) report of China's top ten technology corporates. It aims to evaluate the current situation of diversity in the Chinese business ecosystem, and then proposes improvements as an analytical response.
