African NEW YORK and WASHINGTON, June 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- More than ever before, the corporate directors of America's largest and most prominent public companies are likely to reflect an array of gender, racial and ethnic diversity. But while the boardroom is starting to reflect a broader range of lived experiences, the rate of change has room for improvement. Today, in collaboration with Deloitte, the Alliance for Board Diversity (ABD) released the seventh edition of "Missing Pieces." This comprehensive biennial report examines and chronicles the representation of women and individuals from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups on the boards of Fortune 500 companies. The report's latest edition analyzed data from 2020 – 2022 and highlights trends around some aspects of board diversity across Fortune-ranked companies, the disparities between these boards and the U.S. demographic population and variations in boardroom diversity across industries. These insights highlight the progress and serve to inform and highlight the need for a more diverse board composition.
Key Points:
- Today, in collaboration with Deloitte, the Alliance for Board Diversity (ABD) released the seventh edition of "Missing Pieces ."
- In 2022, women held more than 30% of Fortune 500 board seats, up from 26.5% in 2020.
- The "Missing Pieces," seventh edition report uses a census methodology and is based on companies listed on Fortune 500 for 2022.
- Due to gaps in data availability, the analysis covers 92% of the Fortune 100 (n = 92) and 95.4% of the Fortune 500 (n = 477).
