The large Swedish listed companies by 2016 must have at least 40 per cent women on boards, otherwise await legislation. It explained the Green Party spokesperson Gustav Fridolin, in an interview with SVT after the opening of Parliament.

According Fridolin is the set position to quickly send a signal to this Nominating Committees are now working with their proposals. Unless the requirement is met in 2016, the new government, which Fridolin in the interview called the country’s first feminist, adding a Bill of that year.

  Fridolins statement on affirmative action is in line with what Stefan Löfven (S) said when he spoke when the feminist big meeting Nordic Forum began in Malmo in June. The future prime minister wanted to see a drastic improvement from the stock of the company, he pointed out, otherwise:

 
        
             
     
     
 

 - We see no significant improvement, we will introduce a law on quotas, explained Löfven.

  – I think it is worrying that the incoming government’s first economic policy signal and a decision is about to fold in how companies are managed, says outgoing Equality Maria Arnholm (FP).

 Arnholm out that she worked for voluntary quotas and that the business community said to be interested in 40 per cent of women in boardrooms but have wanted in 2018 as a time when they will be 35 percent.

 - For a liberal, it is always preferable that you work on a voluntary basis, said Arnholm.

 She believes that the upcoming government Löfven reject a job that already set in motion.

 - I hope this does not become symptomatic of how the new government will work towards business.
