About

The Financial Reporting Council Limited awarded a contract to SQW Limited and London Business School for a research project examining how board effectiveness is impacted by diversity of board membership.

The project was divided into two parts: Part A used a quantitative design to investigate the impact of gender and ethnic diversity on board effectiveness, while Part B employed a qualitative design to explore the effects of gender, socioeconomic, and ethnic diversity on board effectiveness and dynamics, the attributes and skills expected in future boardrooms, and how nomination committees can adopt more objective and diversity-friendly recruitment approaches.

The contract value was AUD 69,000.
