Nasdaq's push for diversity will be good for businesses, experts say
Nasdaq is pushing for greater diversity among the more than 3,000 companies listed on its exchange. The exchange operator filed a proposal Tuesday asking the Securities and Exchange Commission to approve new listing rules surrounding the makeup of companies' boards of directors, as well as greater transparency around who fills the seats in the boardroom. Darren Walker, president of the Ford Foundation, and Ursula Burns, Teneo senior advisor and former Xerox chairman and CEO, join "Squawk Box" to discuss.
