A new study of chief executives of FTSE 100 companies has revealed that today's lenders are younger and better qualified than when the FTSE 100 was first established 24 years ago. Research by Odgers, Ray and Berndtson, discovered that the average age of a chief executive had fallen to 52 from 60. Additionally, today's leaders are more diverse, with just 58 being British compared to 80 in 1984, 14 hailing from the US, ten from Europe and eight from Commonwealth countries. Chief executives are also more highly-educated than before, with all but five holding a university degree, as opposed to 30 CEOs without a degree in 1984. The shift is partly explained by the way in which businesses within the FTSE 100 have changed. Numerous manufacturing and consumer goods companies are no longer present on the index, being replaced by companies associated with resources, media, professional and support services.
