Lack of FTSE 100 board diversity could hamper post-Brexit deals
A lack of boardroom diversity in the UK’s major firms could obstruct trade negotiations with countries outside of Europe after Brexit, according to research by executive search company Green Park. The annual study shows that although the number of FTSE 100 companies with no senior ethnic minority representation has fallen from 62 to 58, the number of ethnic minority individuals holding the post of chair, CEO or CFO has fallen by 18%. Rolls-Royce had one of the least diverse senior management teams in the FTSE 100, ranking 90th in relation to employment of women and people of colour.
