'But is it enough?'

Key Points

Solomon preceded his news-making statement by saying that, over the last four years, the performance of public offerings of U.S. companies with at least one female director is "significantly better" than those without.Goldman CEO says firm won't take companies public that don't have at least one diverse board memberCEO David Solomon told CNBC on Thursday his investment bank will help companies go public only if they have at least one "diverse" board member.

About 60 companies in the U.S. and Europe have gone public recently with all white, male boards, he said. Part of the problem is that most board candidates are selected from people who have already served as corporate CEOs or CFOs or public company directors, which locked out women from being added to boards, Solomon said. He added that Goldman, with its far-reaching network of corporate executives, could help clients find female board candidates if needed. Goldman currently has four women on its 11-person board.

I respectfully disagree. While I believe that there’s more information than ever, most roadshows take place behind closed doors or even in bank vaults. Startups and pre-IPOs should host and broadcast key investment meetings. This would add an extra layer of transparency.

Yes, and it's also the case that most of the value creation happens privately. Puts and takes, DJ D-SOL.
