Cranfield Female FTSE Board Report 2016
FTSE 250 Companies
The Female FTSE Board Report 2016
36
As Table 11 shows, 90 FTSE 250 companies now have at least 25% women on their boards. Of these, only 66 have 27% or more women on their boards (our target for 2016), so there is still a long way to go before meeting the target of 33% by 2020. On a positive note, only 15 companies have all-male boards. Like the FTSE 100 boards, there is a huge variance in the percentage of women on the FTSE 250 boards from 0% to 50%; the variance in size of the boards with women directors being 4-11 on FTSE 250 boards compared to 7-26 on FTSE 100 boards.
