What You Need to Know for Proxy Season 2019
Dear Friend,
In this month’sComp & Gov Spotlight, we focus on the trends and policy changes your company needs to be aware of for proxy season 2019. As 2018 draws to a close, Farient helps you understand and prepare for what to expect in corporate governance in the coming year.
Farient COO John Trentacoste will be speaking at the KPMG Board Leadership Conference on the panel, "Hot Topics for the Compensation Committee in 2019." The event brings together seasoned directors, governance professionals and business leaders to explore the governance challenges and priorities driving board agendas in the year ahead.
In the spirit of the coming holiday season, Farient has developed a list of the “seven deadly sins” companies should avoid to stay off the “naughty list” this coming proxy season.
In a discussion with Phyllis J. Campbell, who serves on the board of Alaska Air Group and on the advisory board for diversity at Toyota North America, John Trentacoste explores the most pressing issues in executive pay. These include the war for talent, increasing scrutiny of boards by shareholders and preparing for new executive roles such as chief data officer.
This article highlights three topics – the CEO Pay Ratio, “Smaller Reporting Company” designation and the impact of the Tax Cuts and Job Act on disclosure of executive compensation – that should be on your radar as you head into the New Year.
Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) has published a preview of policy updates for the 2019 proxy season. Given ISS’ status as a bellwether for key shareholder issues, understanding these policy changes is essential.
