Singapore
SINGAPORE's top 100 listed companies appear to be steadily weaning themselves from the 'all-boys club' in the boardrooms. In 2013, half of them had zero women while as at end-2018, just-men boards shrank to 25 per cent.
Not bad, considering Singapore, unlike many of its European counterparts, has not put in place legal mandates to narrow the corporate gender divide in its boards.
