We excluded financial companies (banks and insurance companies) due to their specific capital structure and regulatory requirements, and companies with missing data.

Firstly, the sample size is relatively small, which may limit the generalizability of our findings.

Therefore, to reduce potential bias in these estimates, it would be useful to use other indicators, such as real earnings management.</p><!--/ Abstract__block -->\u0000<h3>Practical implications</h3>\u0000<p>The findings have several implications for regulatory, investors and academic researchers. For regulators, it is appropriate to promote several standards related to corporate environmental disclosure and earnings management. The results advise also the worldwide policy maker to give the importance of female roles to improve engagement firms in corporate environmental disclosure, so to be more transparent in their accounting practices to ensure that they are not engaging in unethical or fraudulent behavior. For investors, the results show that the existence of female directors on the board reduces earnings management.
