The answer is "Nevertheless": Many major corporations in the United States are run by women. Nevertheless, as of 2021, women constituted less than ten percent of the CEOs of Fortune 500 companies.

Explanation:

  • "Nevertheless" is used to introduce a contrast or contradiction to the previous statement. In this case, it highlights the contrast between the fact that many corporations are run by women and the fact that women still make up less than ten percent of Fortune 500 CEOs.
  • "Consequently" would imply a cause-and-effect relationship, which does not fit the context here.
  • "Furthermore" is used to add information that supports the previous statement, which is not the case here as the second part of the sentence presents a contrasting fact.
