Equilar Board Leadership Forum
New York, NY
Partner Melissa Burek will participate in a panel discussion on “Director Pay: Balancing Ownership and Incentives With Objectivity”. Over the past few years, director compensation has shifted and now includes a heavier mix of equity in the past. Even if director equity vests on a time-based schedule and is not directly based on performance, ultimately board members’ compensation and personal worth will be tied to stock price performance over time. With recent director compensation-related litigation, this panel will look at considerations boards should take into account when setting their own pay.
