The CBI business group has settled legal action brought by its former boss Tony Danker for wrongful dismissal.
Mr Danker was sacked with immediate effect in 2023 following complaints about his behaviour.
His exit came as other separate allegations of historical misconduct at the lobby group were uncovered but were unconnected to Mr Danker.

The organisation, which claims to represent the interests of 170,000 businesses across the UK, also reiterated on Monday that Mr Danker was not associated with historical claims.
The CBI, one of the UK’s most prominent lobby groups, was plunged into crisis last year following allegations of rape and sexual assault, which led to thousands of members, including John Lewis, BMW, Virgin Media O2, quitting the group.
Events were postponed and the government halted engagement with the group, prompting fears over its funding and survival.
Before these misconduct allegations emerged, Mr Danker faced separate claims about his behaviour and stepped aside while an investigation began in March last year.
