dc.description.abstract | This year we have seen the percentage of women on FTSE 100 boards rise
to almost 28% (27.7%) after a year of stagnation. Over the past 12 months,
turnover of board directors has been low (12.5%), but the proportion of new
appointments going to women has hit the target of at least 1:3. This means
that we could be within reach of 33% women on FTSE 100 boards by 2020 as
long as the momentum is maintained. Progress continues also on the FTSE
250 which has risen to almost 23% (22.8%). Here there needs to be a greater
push in order to meet the target of 33% by 2020. The percentage of women
holding FTSE 100 non-executive (NED) positions is at an all-time high of 33%,
but the percentage of women holding executive directorships remains low
at just under 10%. This year six women hold chair positions and a further 14
hold Senior Independent Directorships on the FTSE 100. | en_GB |
