Gender and Monetary Policymaking: Trends and Drivers

Bocconi University study draws conclusions about gender representation and diversity in monetary policy committees

Bocconi University research paper analyzes gender representation in monetary policy committees. Results show that gender representation is more likely to be relevant in countries characterized by a well-defined central bank governance, i.e. more independent central banks and less involved in supervision. Gender diversity is inversely associated with inflation rates and money growth. The presence of women on central bank boards seems to be associated with a more hawkish approach to monetary policy making.
