Asset manager Fidelity International and Big Four accountancy firms EY, Deloitte and PwC have called allegations of sexual misconduct at the CBI “deeply concerning” as corporate members await the findings of an internal investigation.

The Guardian on 3 April reported multiple allegations of sexual misconduct by senior figures at the influential City lobby group, including from one woman who claims she was raped at a staff party that took place on a boat on the River Thames in 2019.
