Sign upThe Parker Review
The Parker Review is an independent framework, comprising business professionals who each bring, on a voluntary basis, a wide range of gender and ethnically diverse perspectives, and makes recommendations for accelerating ethnic representation in Britain's boardrooms.
The aim for the first Parker Review was for all FTSE 100 boards to have at least one director from an ethnic minority background by December 2021. A “One by 2024” target was set for all FTSE 250 boards.
Our latest report, issued on 11 March 2024, showed that 96 FTSE 100 companies met the target, with at least one minority ethnic director on their boards, which is consistent with last year. This is a significant increase from 2016, when only 47 FTSE 100 companies had a director from a minority ethnic group.
