The board of Cambridge Analytica has suspended chief executive Alexander Nix with immediate effect, pending an independent investigation.
In a statement, Cambridge Analytica said the findings of the investigation would be shared publicly in due course.
"In the view of the board, Mr Nix's recent comments secretly recorded by Channel 4 and other allegations do not represent the values or operations of the firm and his suspension reflects the seriousness with which we view this violation," the statement read.
More to come.
