Abstract

The recent European and national legislation has created the conditions to foster a virtuous cycle between corporate governance and value creation, expanding the role of institutional investors. High concentration and limited contestability characterize the ownership structure of the majority of Italian listed companies. Boards’ features are changing, also due to the application of the gender quotas law. Looking ahead, Board diversity can also be boosted by non-financial reporting obligations
