The number of papers studying and debating about the role of women in management has been increasing lately. These researches have focused on analyzing performance by means of comparing start-up capital, financing structure and financial performance in companies run by men and women. Research in both the manufacturing and service sectors has shown that companies run by women start with less capital and receive less external financing than firms run by men.
