“Beth brings exceptionally deep knowledge of the financial services industry from her 40-year career in banking, as well as a valuable perspective from her service on the boards of other large, global public companies,” said Julie Sweet, Accenture’s chief executive officer. “She also brings a track record of fostering a culture of inclusion and diversity and delivering shareholder value. Beth will make a significant contribution as we continue executing our strategy and delivering shared success for all our stakeholders.”

If elected by shareholders at the annual general meeting, Ms. Mooney will join Accenture’s Board of Directors immediately afterward and will serve on the Finance Committee. Together with our other nominees, the Board would comprise 12 directors, 10 of whom will be external and independent. Ms. Sweet and David Rowland, Accenture’s executive chairman, are the Board’s only internal directors.
