WASHINGTON, 20 de diciembre de 2013 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ -- La Asociación Hispana de Responsabilidad Corporativa (HACR por sus siglas en inglés) anunció hoy los resultados de su Estudio de la Gobernanza Corporativa (CGS pos sus siglas in inglés) que demuestra pocos avances para la inclusión de hispanos en las juntas directivas en los últimos 20 años.

On Dec. 18, the Hispanic Association on Corporate Responsibility (HACR) through its research arm, the HACR Research Institute, released the findings of its 2013 Corporate Governance Study.

El HACR CGS mide la inclusión de los Hispanos en el las altas esferas gerenciales y las juntas directivas de las compañías del Fortune 500. El HACR CGS, es un elemento del Instituto de Investigación de HACR (HACR Research Institute en inglés), que se dedica a la investigación objetiva y al análisis de temas relacionados con los Hispanos en las corporaciones estadounidenses.

Las principales conclusiones son:

  • Las Latinas sólo ocupan 37 de los 5,511 puestos en las juntas directivas de las empresas del Fortune 500
  • Los Hispanos representan el tres por ciento de los directores de las juntas directivas de las empresas del Fortune 500
  • El 70 por ciento o cerca de 350 empresas de la lista Fortune 500 no tienen hispanos en sus respectivos consejos
  • Sólo el dos por ciento o 10 de los primer ejecutivos Fortune 500 (CEOs) son de origen hispano
  • 133 personas hispanas ocupan 171 puestos en la dirección de empresas del Fortune 500
  • Sólo el cuatro por ciento de las compañías del Fortune 500 tienen dos hispanos en sus juntas directivas

"Felicito a HACR por realizar este estudio, Corporate Governance Study de 2013, que reitera la importancia del liderazgo latino y de que sean incluidos en los altos rangos de las empresas en todo el país - una prioridad que comparto y he persistido como presidente de la Junta Hispana de los Demócratas en el Senado", comentó el Senador Robert Menéndez, D-N.J. "La creación de juntas más diversas es un ejemplo ideal del éxito americano. Espero poder continuar colaborando con HACR para incrementar la diversidad en las juntas directivas corporativas y promover el liderazgo latino en todos los niveles de nuestros sectores económicos, políticos y sociales".

Este año,  el HACR CGS muestra que aunque los directores hispanos han logrado incrementar sus números, los avances  representan solo una fracción de las plazas disponibles. Entre 1993 y 2007, hubo un impulso significativo en la representación hispana en las juntas. Sin embargo, los datos del 2013 sugieren que el impulso se ha perdido, y es importante recalcar que estos aumentos eran menores y no representativos, dado el tamaño y el poder adquisitivo de los hispanos en los Estados Unidos. 

"Las empresas como American Express, Apple, ExxonMobil, y Sears deberían sentirse avergonzados de que sus juntas excluyen a los hispanos, a pesar de ser un grupo demográfico de 60 millones de consumidores con un poder adquisitivo de 1,3 mil billones de dólares," dijo el presidente y director ejecutivo de HACR, Carlos F. Orta. "La falta de inclusión de los hispanos no predice buen valor para los accionistas, dado que el consumidor hispano de los EE.UU. constituye la 14a economía más grande del mundo."
