We explore current trends in total compensation for executives and key officers. This presentation also focuses on performance-based compensation approaches that community and regional institutions should consider to attract and retain quality officers.
We examine the current compensation environment and discuss different performance-based incentive vehicles. We discuss the keys to effective and motivating cash incentive plans and will share what institutions are using in respect to equity-based/longer-term incentives.
This session incorporates applicable regulatory guidelines and updates surrounding incentive-based pay. Market data from our BCG surveys and databases will be incorporated throughout.
As part of this webinar, we will utilize a score sheet that shows how your institution compares to industry best practices regarding executive total compensation.
