Geisha Williams' departure from PG&E takes the percentage of Latina Fortune 500 CEOs from 0.2% to 0.0%, equaling the percentage of black female CEOs.

The big picture: With Indra Nooyi stepping down as CEO of PepsiCo in October 2018, the total number of Fortune 500 CEOs who are women of color is now 0.2%. The lone woman leading a Fortune 500 company is Joey Wat of Yum China.

Editor's note: This piece has been corrected to show that the total number of Fortune 500 CEOs who are women of color is 0.2% and that Joey Wat is the CEO of Yum China.
