“…However, if the market is down, assets with beta <1 will be more favorable, as the losses will be smaller. Therefore, risk-averse investors will prefer financial assets with lower betas, especially in times of crisis when markets are more volatile ( Valls Martínez et al, 2021 ).…”

Gender equality is included in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and in the Global Jobs Pact of the International Labour Organization. Many countries, especially in Europe, are incorporating legal quotas into their legislation to oblige companies to increase the presence of women in the highest positions of responsibility. This measure has been controversial and widely debated, and so it is of great interest to analyze the economic effects that the incorporation of women brings. The aim of this paper is to analyze the relationship between the percentage of women on the board of directors and systematic market risk, measured using the beta of stocks in the S&P 500 and Euro Stoxx 300 indexes from 2015 to 2019. Applying OLS regressions with instrumental variables, fixed effects panel data, and a GMM estimation, the results show a negative and significant relationship for the U.S. market. However, this relationship was not confirmed for the European market.

“…In those autonomous communities with better public healthcare systems, i.e., those with more beds available, more diagnostic instruments (computerized axial tomography equipment, magnetic resonance imaging, etc. ), and more specialist doctors [ 1 , 15 , 22 ], it is logical to think that citizens will have less need to resort to the private system as a complementary service. Moreover, given the cost of private health insurance, only those with higher incomes can have access to this service.…”

“…The European social welfare system includes health care, pensions, education, and social services. However, the operating model is not uniform across countries [ 1 ]. In the continental system, which was established by Bismarck in Germany, the health services are supplied by private companies, although the state is responsible for their regulation.…”

This research analyzes the influence of COVID-19 and public health spending policies on the economic sustainability of Spanish private hospitals. Moreover, it explores the relationship between public health spending policies and the spread of COVID-19 in Spain. Private health care is an understudied sector, yet it is fundamental to the health of citizens. Moreover, the economic causes linked to the spread of the pandemic have not yet been clearly established. Therefore, this work covers a gap in the literature. Private hospital profitability was analyzed by applying ordinary least squares and panel data regressions on financial and macroeconomic data for the period 2017–2020. The spread of COVID-19 was examined by means of cluster and component analysis. The results show that the COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected the economic sustainability of Spanish private hospitals, which was also influenced by public health spending. In turn, the spread of the pandemic was mainly related to population density, but was also influenced by public health spending and the gross domestic product of the region. Therefore, policymakers must consider that it is essential to make adequate investments in the healthcare system to cope with pandemics such as COVID-19. In addition, managers can see how corporate social responsibility is a valuable strategy for maintaining hospital profitability.
