CEO pay goes green, but details lacking on performance measures
It’s one thing to set CEO remuneration based on climate change goals; it’s another to be able to properly measure them.
Executives are not coin-based. They cannot allocate 5 per cent of their time to one cause, 15 per cent to another and 20 per cent to another, just because their board has set up the remuneration structure that way.
Instead, boards have to decide what is core and set short- and long-term incentives accordingly. What is core to shareholders, group strategy and its short- and long-term value creation? What do they want the executives to prioritise? That’s one of the most important jobs for company boards.
