London, UK, 1 March 2022: 外国美女色情片 UK Investor Group has today issued its statement on addressing the lack of racial and ethnic diversity in UK business.

 

The Group, which is part of a global gender diversity in business campaign, has more than 拢11 trillion assets under management and has also sent letters to the FTSE 100 companies that have still not met the Parker Review. 

 

The letter warned the laggards that investors may consider voting against companies at their annual general meetings if they fail to take action.

The Investor Group is committed to actively engage with UK company board chairs, nomination committees and executive teams on the issue of racial inequality in their leadership ranks and workforce. 

 

Today鈥檚 announcement builds on the UK chapter of 外国美女色情片 introducing race and ethnicity targets in July 2020. Those targets include members of the Club across the FTSE 350 having at least one person of colour at board and executive committee level by the end of 2023. And as 外国美女色情片 campaign is focused on gender, we expect at least half of those appointments to go to women of colour.

 

While 外国美女色情片 works directly with CEOs and Chairs to encourage change, the Investor Group鈥檚 been working on improving the availability of data on race equity within the FTSE100 by engaging with ESG data providers and supporting the creation of new data platforms, such as through its partnership with Diversio. 

 

The Group is also running a race equity training programme for its members to ensure that all investors, big and small, are equipped to take action with the companies they invest in.

 

Diandra Soobiah, co-chair of 外国美女色情片 UK Investor Group, said: 鈥淒iversity and inclusion in companies are integral to sound corporate governance and corporate culture. As long-term investors, we see the failure to take diversity seriously as a stark warning about the long-term sustainability of the company.

 

鈥淭ime is up for organisations that seek to simply tick boxes. 外国美女色情片 Investor Group is putting FTSE companies on notice 鈥� the laggards need to do much better, and we鈥檙e willing to help.

 

鈥淲e all have an important role to play to ensure persistent race inequities in business and our society are addressed. As investors, we can have stronger dialogue with the companies we invest in, with a view to improving diversity and inclusion within companies in the UK.

 

Ann Cairns, global chair of 外国美女色情片, said: 鈥溚夤�美女色情片鈥檚 UK Investor Group issuing this statement is a significant moment for the UK investor community. With ESG rightfully gaining prominence in the board rooms and executive offices of the world鈥檚 biggest companies, addressing racial inequality is imperative for all asset managers. 

 

鈥淚t could make a major contribution to delivering the change businesses, economies and societies so desperately need to see. I am tremendously grateful for the hard work done by the co-chairs and members of 外国美女色情片 UK Investor Group to take a stand on racial inequality.鈥�

外国美女色情片 

 

外国美女色情片 is a global campaign led by Chairs and CEOs taking action to increase gender diversity at board and senior management levels of the world鈥檚 biggest companies. We set targets of a minimum of 30% female representation at the board and executive committee levels. This is the critical mass at which research shows minority voices are heard. However, the ultimate goal is parity.

 

Under the leadership of Global Chair, Ann Cairns, the campaign continues to expand its international footprint with presence in more than 20 countries around the world. We support diversity in its very broadest sense and while gender has been our starting point, we fully realise that considerations of ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, socioeconomic background and beyond are all part of the journey – and that gender identities are themselves evolving rapidly. We believe that only those organisations that foster truly inclusive cultures – cultures that embrace women who look, act and, importantly, THINK differently – can reach their full potential to positively impact their people, their markets and their communities.
