Listed companies have 39% of women on
their boards but only two in 100 are managing directors or CEOs,
according to a survey as of 2019 by bourse regulator CONSOB and
the Bank of Italy for International Women's day Monday.
The representation of women on boards has risen to almost 40%
from just 7% in 20111, the study said.
Successive governments have tried to help break the glass
ceiling and boost the presence of women at the top of business
and other institutions.
