Finance Research Letters, 2016Abstract Motivated by the debate on gender inequality, we study CEO gender and CEO age.

If this is the case, female CEOs should be older than their male counterparts on average.

Determinants of CEO Age at Succession
Journal of Management & Governance, 2006Based on Brickley’s (2003) call for research on the CEO/turnover relation, we examine determinants of CEO age at succession. Utilizing the similarity–attraction paradigm, we propose that board members will select new CEOs that are similar to their own age. We find a strong positive relation between successor CEO age and average board member age.
