监事会的性别配额继续显示其影响力：去年，德国200家业绩最佳公司监事会中的女性比例增加了两个百分点，达到27%。在100家最大的公司中，这一比例上升了3个百分点，达到28%。然而，现在有迹象表明，这些公司只做了最低限度的工作，因为在DAX指数最大的30家公司中，女性的比例-其中许多公司已经达到了30%的最低水平-停滞在三分之一。此外，越来越明显的是，性别配额没有对执行局产生预期的影响，至少在短期内没有。尽管在前100名的公司中首次达到了10%的水平，但大多数发展仍然以蜗牛的速度进行。阻碍约束董事会成员配额的要求，仍取决于公司。然而，要做到这一点，他们必须尽快采取行动，并始终如一地用更多的女性填补所有层级，特别是董事会之下，以增加潜在的女性董事会成员。
The gender quota for supervisory boards is continuing to show its impact: the proportion of women on the supervisory boards of the 200 highest-performing companies in Germany increased by over two percentage points to 27 percent the past year. In the 100 largest companies, it increased by over three percentage points to 28 percent. However, there are now indications that the companies are only doing the bare minimum, as the proportion of women in the group of the 30 largest DAX companies—many of which have already reached the minimum of 30 percent women—has stagnated at one-third. Additionally, it is becoming more and more apparent that the gender quota does not have the impact hoped for on executive boards, at least not in the short term. Even though the ten percent mark was reached for the first time in the top 100 companies, most development is still taking place at a snail’s pace. It is still up to companies to stymie demands for binding board member quotas. To do this, however, they must act as quickly as possible and consistently fill all hierarchical levels, especially beneath the board, with more women in order to increase the pool of potential female board members.
