Abstract

Zusammenfassung Der vorliegende Beitrag untersucht vor dem Hintergrund der aktuellen Diskussion um eine Frauenquote in Deutschland die Geschaftsberichterstattung uber Frauen in Fuhrungspositionen der DA X 30-Unternehmen insbesondere im Hinblick auf die im Mai 2010 geanderten Anforderungen der Regierungskommission Deutscher Corporate Governance Kodex. Auf Basis einer Analyse der Geschaftsberichte der DA X 30-Unternehmen insbesondere fur das Geschaftsjahr 2010 zeigt sich, dass zwar nahezu alle Unternehmen grundlegende Aussagen zu diesem aktuellen Thema treffen. Allerdings nennen beispielsweise fur das Geschaftsjahr 2010 nach wie vor 30,0% der Unternehmen keine konkreten Ziele fur eine angemessene Beteiligung von Frauen im Aufsichtsrat in ihrem Geschaftsbericht und entsprechen damit nicht den Anforderungen des Deutschen Corporate Governance Kodex in seiner aktuellen Form.
