Análisis de género en la gestión financiera de las empresas ecuatorianas, CIIU: J62. Periodo 2017- 2023

Abstract

Abstract: This study makes a significant contribution by characterizing Ecuadorian companies in Sector J62, identifying the participation of men and women in management and executive positions, and evaluating their financial management. To this end, 34 companies in Sector CJ6 were selected and analyzed between 2017 and 2023 to understand the dynamics of companies engaged in information and communication activities and their organizational structure in relation to gender distribution in leadership positions. A literature review was used to explore theoretical concepts regarding the current state of gender in financial management. The study employed a non-experimental, documentary, and descriptive methodology. The results show a prevalence of men in management and executive positions. It concludes that, although men predominate over women in leadership roles, companies led by women demonstrate high levels of efficiency and tend to have higher levels of academic training than their male counterparts.
