Resumen

Este trabajo constituye una extensión de la literatura que estudia la relación entre diversidad de género en el ámbito directivo y rentabilidad empresarial, ya que se propone avanzar más allá de la medición de una posible relación directa entre ambas variables, a la vez que realiza una aplicación de la teoría institucional, todo ello particularizado para entidades financieras. Concretamente, se ha analizado la cuestión del género en la cúpula de las cooperativas de crédito españolas y su influencia en la rentabilidad de dichas entidades, no solo directamente sino a través de la relación con los socios y el nivel de endeudamiento, incluyendo la corrupción del entorno como posible condicionante de tales efectos indirectos. Tal alcance resulta novedoso respecto a las investigaciones existentes, caracterizadas por centrarse principalmente en una relación directa y por no tener en cuenta el contexto institucional, indicando la necesidad de poner el foco en posibles vías de influencia indirecta y en las instituciones como condicionantes de la calidad de la gestión empresarial. Para llevar a cabo el análisis, se estimarán ecuaciones dinámicas, tratando la endogeneidad mediante el Método Generalizado de los Momentos (MGM). Los hallazgos confirman la influencia indirecta de las medidas de género en la rentabilidad a través de los indicativos de relación con los socios y endeudamiento, potenciada cuando el nivel de corrupción en el entorno es menor.
