ITV, KPMG and Diageo are among 20 top firms pledging to have at least one ethnic-minority director on their boards by 2024. 

The group, which also includes PwC, Axa and Pearson, will publish a plan to increase diversity at the highest levels and disclose the ethnicity pay gap within two years as part of the Confederation of British Industry’s Change the Race Ratio campaign.

A report in February found 37 FTSE 100 firms had no black or ethnic-minority directors. 

This month, Legal & General, one of Britain’s biggest institutional investors, told FTSE100 firms with all-white boards it will vote against them unless they hire an ethnic-minority director within 15 months.
