Women on company boards at record high but CEO roles fall

The Guardian

|

February 25, 2025

Women occupy more than two in five seats on the boards of Britain's biggest listed companies as further progress was made last year, but the number of those in the top roles dipped for a time to fewer than 10 female FTSE 100 chief executives, according to a report.

- Julia Kollewe

The proportion of board positions held by women at FTSE 350 companies rose to a new all-time high of 43.4% last year, up from 42.1% in 2023, according to the government-backed annual FTSE Women Leaders Review. Among the 100 biggest listed companies, the proportion of women in the boardroom was even higher, at 44.7% versus 42.6% in 2023.
