TAILORED REMUNERATION SOLUTIONS.
Over the past three years we’ve expanded our analysis of board, CEO and executive remuneration in the Utilities Sector. Our database enables tailored benchmarking, remuneration strategy and remuneration structure design focused on delivering sustainable outcomes. If you under invest in executive remuneration you’ll have difficulty attracting and retaining the best talent. If you over invest you’ll waste financial resources. Striking the right balance is key to an effective strategy.

-
Executive Remuneration Strategy
Executive Remuneration is a critical corporate governance issue. How a company pays its CEO and executive team impacts on its capacity to attract the best people and to motivate them to maintain focus on critical business objectives. There is no one size that fits all.
-

Board Remuneration Strategy
Directors fees need to be equitable and appropriate for the size of the company and the market in which it operates. Directors bring their expertise to contribute to business success and ensure that governance obligations are met. This needs to be recognised and rewarded.
-
Remuneration Governance Processes
The Corporations Act 2001 places obligations on the boards of listed companies to ensure that their remuneration decisions are made in a responsible and ethical manner. Many other private and government owned entities follow the same principals as set out in the Act and ASX Principle 8.

Applied Intelligence
We monitor KPI reporting across the Utilities Sector and can provide your company with a benchmark analysis. KPI metrics provide a useful snapshot. But they do not tell the full story. Boards, Remuneration Committees and CEOs need to look beyond the numbers and delve deep into the heart of KPI results.
-
Bespoke Analysis
Each year we analyse data from around 70 utility companies. Our primary focus is on our core expertise; remuneration for directors, CEOs and the executive team. In the process we gather specific data on: The Quantum of Board, CEO and Executive Remuneration, How Companies Structure Executive Packages, Levels of STI and LTI “At Risk” Remuneration and other vital information.
OUR Core Purpose
Our Core Purpose is to work with boards, remuneration committees and CEOs to develop optimal board and executive remuneration strategies which balance the interests of all stakeholder groups. In order to do this we:
Take the complexity out of remuneration strategy.
Deliver excellent results to our clients.
Support companies who focus on pollution reduction and fighting climate change.
Submissions:
In September 2019 Geoff Nunn made a submission to APRA regarding Draft Prudential Standard CPS 511 Remuneration. Whilst well intentioned, we believe the standard further embeds remuneration practices which do not effectively balance the interests of all stakeholder groups.
