Does your fund monitor diversity, gender or otherwise, on the boards of companies in which it invests? If so, how is the information used?

The Council’s weekly Corporate Governance Alert would like to highlight some of the ways members are increasing diversity on corporate boards.  Could you share some of those initiatives?  If you do not want to post them on the listserv, please forward them to Rosemary Lally, editor of the Alert, at rosemary@cii.org<mailto:rosemary@cii.org>.
