Board and Governance

Shareholders and watchdog groups are influencing the composition of boards and how executive compensation packages are approved. Compensation committees must follow new rules and guidelines that define good corporate governance.

It is vital that boards re-evaluate their practices so that compensation committee members are protected from the increased risk of litigation and potential personal liability resulting from inadequate governance.

Attraction, selection, and assessment plans

The Compensation Committee of a FORTUNE 500 global manufacturing company actively managed and was in compliance with its executive and board compensation programs, yet the company was looking to make the programs even better.

Buck Consultants redesigned the compensation governance processes, board compensation strategies, and board performance evaluation system to ensure proactive governance. This truly created a cultural shift at the board level, prompting the audit and nominating committees to also review their own processes.
