The percentage of female CEOs in JSE-listed companies improved to 8% at the end of June 2022 from 5% a year earlier. Looking at the entire executive population of all JSE-listed companies, 15% is female, increasing from 13% last year. But there's little cause for celebration. In actual numbers, only seven of the JSE Top 100 companies were led by female CEOs by the end of June 2022.
That's despite the 77 new executive appointments in the JSE Top 100 between July 2021 and June 2022. Of those new Top 100 executive appointments, only 21 were female.
