Institutional Investors

Institutional investors and large pension funds are becoming increasingly active in corporate governance issues. Executive pay-for-performance is an issue that is coming under increased scrutiny. Institutional investors are comfortable with paying executives according to their level of performance but are outraged at paying for under-performing executives. Issues on executives being compensated for lack of performance is a key issue to institutional investors.

Our independent approach to addressing executive pay-for-performance has become increasingly important to institutional investors. We have been working with significant institutional investors on:

  • Pay-for-performance linkage of executives (CEO) to true corporate performance
  • Analyzing comparative company performance versus select competitive peer groups
  • Providing comparative compensation governance on competitive variable compensation design
  • Assessing true company performance versus pre-determined competitors
