Gender diversity in this research uses proxies for the proportion of female members of the board of directors, the proportion of female members of the board of commissioners and the proportion of female audit committee members. Another factor that influences performance and risk taking is company size. Performance in this research uses the return on assets (ROA) proxy and risk-taking uses the z-score proxy.
