The Singapore Exchange Diversity Action Committee, also known as the Council for Board Diversity, is dedicated to advancing gender diversity and inclusivity in the corporate sector. They believe that having women on boards brings numerous benefits and go beyond meeting quotas. They aim to expand the pool of suitable women candidates by looking beyond personal networks and re-evaluating the typical profile of board directors.

While they support meritocracy, they emphasize that board diversity is crucial for lasting change. The committee also encourages companies to boost investor confidence by disclosing their board diversity policies. Beyond gender diversity, they also address the future of charity boards and how to future-proof charities in an ever-changing landscape.

Through thought leadership, resources, events, and initiatives, the Singapore Exchange Diversity Action Committee is driving change and facilitating the appointment of women directors to empower and inspire future leaders
