“A new analysis released Tuesday shows corporate boardroom diversity among S&P 500 companies has dropped to its lowest level in more than a decade,” NewsNation reports.

“The analysis from global advisory search firm Spencer Stuart found that diverse board appointments among S&P 500 companies have been on the decline since 2021, when it peaked at 72 percent. It also found that fewer new directors are joining boardrooms than at any time since 2026.”
