Remuneration Reports
Independent analysis of director pay, and clear guidance on when shareholders should push back.
Holding boards to account on pay
Director remuneration is one of the clearest tests of whether a board is acting in shareholders’ interests. ShareSoc publishes analysis of company pay arrangements and has issued its own remuneration guidelines for setting pay in public companies.
Our recommendation is straightforward: examine a company’s pay policy against the guidelines and, where it does not comply, vote against.
What we look for in a pay policy
- Pay that is genuinely linked to long-term performance
- Restraint on excessive salaries, bonuses and incentive schemes
- Transparency, so shareholders can see how pay is decided
- Alignment between directors’ rewards and shareholders’ interests
Available to full members
Detailed remuneration analysis is available to full members. Our published Remuneration Guidelines set out, in full, how we believe pay should be set in public companies. Full membership costs less than 90p per week.
