Despite a steady increase in Latino board seats from 2.7 percent in 2019 to 5.0 percent in 2023, the latest report from LCDA and the KPMG Board Leadership Center reveals there remains a stark underrepresentation of Latino directors in Fortune 1000 companies. Even with recent momentum, Latinos face the widest gap in terms of board representation. By 2060, the Hispanic population will be almost 30% of the nation’s population, yet just 5.0 percent of F1000 corporate board positions are held by Hispanics/Latinos.
Why Attend: To learn about the trends and impact of recent drives to push for board diversity, to discover what is and isn‘t working, and what the outlook looks like for Latino growth on boards.
Join Latino Leaders for networking and connecting with fellow Corporate Directors and board influencers for the 2024 Latino Leader's Board Directors Forum: Puerto Rico in April.
Date: Friday, April 19, 2024 Time: 8:00 am - 2:00 pm AST Location: San Juan P.R.

Six months after the Silicon Valley Bank collapse, the Federal Reserve Office of Inspector General (OIG) issued a report pointing to the mistakes and laxity by supervisory staff at SVB. It points to deficiencies in risk management and supervision as being the root cause of the bank failure. At one point did the SVB board decide that minimal compliance was good enough to manage significant risk? One year later, can we use the SVB failure as a cautionary tale for all public companies?
Why Attend? Hear from our esteemed panel about what lessons public board directors can learn from the SVB failure and why supervision is critically important for the stability of the banking sector.
