Abstract (EN)

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the presence of female board members and firm risk with a sample of non-financial companies quoted on the Borsa Istanbul between the years 2012 and 2016. Firm beta and financial leverage ratios are employed as risk proxies, and pooled regression and fixed effects models are utilized to test the hypoteses. The results of the current study suggest that there is no statisticallly significant relationship between the presence of female board board members and firm risk. Keywords: Corporate Governance, Board Structure, Female Board Members, Firm Risk
