Only 7.7% of the companies researched display diversity in all categories, and those companies enjoy the highest performance levels - nearly five times higher than those without diversity. This report is a joint initiative between the Centre for Governance, Institutions and Organisations (CGIO) at NUS Business School and Board Agender with the aim of tracking boardroom gender diversity in Singapore on an annual basis. The report focused on Singapore-listed companies (SGX Mainboard and Catalist), and covered 4,629 directorships in 676 SGX-Iisted companies based on companies' annual reports with financial year end between October 2012 and September 2013. The securities were actively trading as of 31 December 2013. The report also contained analysis of trends derived from the CGIO directors' database covering 2008- 2013.This report was commisioned by National University of Singaporeapplication/pdfen-AU© 2014 Centre for Governance, Institutions and Organisations, NUS Business School20142020-11-22
