INTRODUCTION

Equileap was set up to accelerate progress towards gender equality and cut the 118 years the World Economic Forum estimates it will take for equality to be achieved at present rates of change. It was created in the light of repeated independent research showing that gender diverse companies tend to produce higher financial returns and have lower risk. Equileap believes this Gender Dividend is not yet fully accounted for in market pricing and investment strategies.

Equal pay and, more broadly, equal opportunities at work are powerful levers to grow global prosperity: they have the potential to take millions of women and their families out of poverty and move us closer to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030, as defined by the United Nations.

The 2017 Gender Equality Global Report and Ranking sits at the heart of Equileap's strategy to accelerate gender equality in the workplace. It is part of a comprehensive tool-kit designed to make the gender performance of public companies transparent and comparable, and to enable corporations to understand how they can improve performance.

It will: Help investors discover which companies lead the field in terms of gender balance, so they can invest with a gender lens aiming to make a difference and a return; Give the public, corporate leaders and employees independent information about which companies treat both genders fairly over the long-term; Enable governments and other procuring organisations to screen companies for gender equality.

Equileap has researched and scored over 3,000 public companies from 23 countries, using 19 criteria to measure their progress towards gender equality. This Ranking shows the Top 200 ? all of which have demonstrated a commitment to gender equality, although every one of them could benefit further from the gender dividend.

Equileap will update this report and ranking annually - so that we can track each company's performance over time. There is a lot of work ahead for companies that want to reap the benefits of gender equality, but we believe that for the first time we are within reach of achieving it.

We hope that the 2017 Gender Equality Global Report and Ranking will help companies, investors, individuals, governments, employees and civil society be part of a strategy of change to speed up the achievement of gender equality worldwide.

The Equileap Ranking makes

corporate progress towards

gender equality transparent

nder eq u al i

and globally comparable for the first time across all sec-

tors. Equileap used its exten-

sive Gender Scorecard to rank companies. It

looks at 19 data points in 4 categories:

A: Gender Balance in Leadership and

Workforce;

B: Equal Compensation and Work/Life

Balance;

C: Policies Promoting Gender Equality;

D: Commitment to Women's Empower-

ment.

3048 global companies with a market capitalisation of over $2billion in 23 developed countries were ranked. The information was drawn from public sources and manually researched by the Sustainable Finance Group at Maastricht University. This Ranking orders

the Top 200 companies and gives each of them an overall grade to show how well they do compared to the total marks on the Scorecard (35).

Gender equality is a vital part of Dutch foreign policy. As part of this commitment, we have supported Equileap from the start. We believe it has an important role to play in bringing together companies, investors and governments to speed up the achievement of equality in the workplace and reduce poverty.
