The CII was part of the City of London’s Socio Economic Diversity Taskforce, which concluded that ‘an absence of socio-economic diversity at the top [of financial services] has wide-ranging social, business and economic consequences for organisations, the sector, and beyond’. One of its key recommendations was for financial services organisations to collect and analyse consistent data about people’s socio economic background across the sector. In support of this initiative, we are asking the following question. As this is a complex area, we would also like to invite you to add any additional information you feel is relevant in the free text box below.
