Description: Join us on Dec. 14 at 1:00 P.M. EST for a roundtable discussion on how investors can strike a balance between ensuring alignment between pay and performance, while giving portfolio companies sufficient latitude to design and implement pay policies boards deem effective. The roundtable discussion, moderated by ISS’ Head of Compensation Policy Development, Carol Bowie, will feature a panel of investors, issuers, and pay advisors discussing the benefits and drawbacks of traditional approaches to long-term and at-risk compensation, and how investors can best communicate their preferred approach to portfolio companies. The one hour session also will explore alternative approaches to long-term pay, including Market Stock Units and other equity-based instruments, circumstances where their use is most appropriate, investors’ perspectives on their efficacy, and their upside and downside for various stakeholders.
