Notes:
Testing H1 − Percentage of women on BoD N = 72 (number of European banks). ƩiTi.N = 504 (number of bank-year observations). t-statistics are shown in parenthesis. The robust standard errors of the estimated coefficients are clustered at the bank level. *, ** and ***denote level of significance at the 0.10, 0.05 and 0.01 levels, respectively;
Model 1, Model 2, Model 3 and Model 4 correlate the percentage of women on BoD (dependent variable) to the comprehensive ESG scoring, the environmental scoring, the social scoring and the governance scoring, respectively
