Note(s): This table shows the results of female directors promoting water performance (Columns 1, 4 and 7), water performance promoting water information disclosure (Columns 3, 6 and 9) and water performance as a mediator variable between female directors and water information disclosure (Columns 1–9). The t-values are given in parentheses next to the coefficients. All variables are defined in  Appendix 1. ***p < 0.01, **p < 0.05, *p < 0.1
