Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to explore the moderating role of gender diversity in corporate board and CEO experience in terms of the relationship between tax aggressiveness and corporate social responsibility of UAE-listed companies. By applying correlation and regression analysis on a data set of 55 firms from 2014 to 2020, it is found that board gender diversity does not moderate the relationship between tax aggressiveness and CSR. However, a female CEO positively moderates this relationship. It is also found that CEO experience negatively moderates the relationship between tax aggressiveness and CSR. It is recommended that policymakers improve checks and balances so that male dominance can be reduced to give women opportunities to be involved in decision-making.
