3. The – possible – impact of regulatory approaches

Assessing the impact or effectiveness of the different regulatory and enforcement approaches depends first of all on what one sees as the ultimate goal to be achieved; equality in terms of outcome – a balanced representation of men and women in management and/or boards - or rather the creation of equal opportunities to have access to a management (board) position. Hard quota law regimes can be said to be more (top-down) outcome-oriented, whereas selfregulatory and coregulatory approaches are more (bottom-up) opportunities-oriented and often not setting specific targets.
