CTPartners (NYSE MKT:CTP) is aware that a complaint by a former employee has been submitted to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).

CTPartners takes all allegations of discrimination very seriously. As soon as the firm was informed of concerns by an employee earlier this year, the chief operating officer undertook a comprehensive investigation, along with external counsel. Based on that investigation, the Company believes that the claim does not have merit.

CTPartners is fundamentally committed to a diverse workforce, and promotes an inclusive and positive working environment. CTPartners is proud that more than one-third of the firm’s partners are women, and that 10 of the 17 end-of-year senior-level promotions were earned by female executives.
