Executive compensation and corporate governance
Incentive plans are a key part of the executive remuneration package. They’re also a sensitive area in today’s highly scrutinised corporate environment.
The boardroom landscape is constantly evolving, demanding sophisticated attraction and retention mechanisms and modern governance structures. While incentive plans are a key part of the executive remuneration package, sector-specific regulations – particularly those applicable to the financial services industry – can make executive reward and corporate governance more difficult to navigate.
We provide comprehensive boardroom advice, designing and implementing bespoke plans for management and advising on stakeholder engagement, ESG considerations and governance frameworks.
Unique to Freshfields, the team’s incentives experts are also employment law specialists. So where there may be conflict between remuneration regimes and longstanding employment law principles, we are well equipped to help.
Our Reward(ing) Half Hour podcast series discusses key topics in the executive reward space for publicly listed and private companies.
