Remuneration of non-executive directors, senior management and other key officers often come under considerable scrutiny from shareholders, regulators and the media. Over the last decade, many developed countries around the world have introduced “say on pay” legislation which provides shareholders with binding or advisory votes on remuneration policies and packages of CEOs and other top executives.

Remuneration policies are closely linked to corporate culture and poorly-designed remuneration policies are often major contributors to fraud and misconduct in companies. The Remuneration Committee is therefore often under the spotlight and has to deal with important matters relating to remuneration policies and design, and setting of remuneration levels and mix for directors and key management.

In this 1-day program, participants will be exposed to leading practices relating to the responsibilities of remuneration committees. The program will be highly interactive, with extensive use of real-life case studies and realistic scenarios. The cases and scenarios explored in the program will span a range of companies, government-linked, family-controlled and widely-held companies, and both financial and non-financial services companies.
