(LIVE PROGRAM) Say on Pay 2012: Planning & Tactics

March 6, 2012

With the inaugural universal say on pay votes now in the rear-view mirror, companies are digesting the results, analyzing recent developments, and planning for 2012. Some commentators have suggested that 2011 was a mere trial run - with many investors determining to be conservative in their casting of "no" votes the first time around - but that in 2012 " the gloves will come off." Our experienced panel of practitioners - from the institutional investor, proxy advisory, compensation consulting and corporate governance fields - will share their perspectives and real-world experiences as they look at: Lessons learned from 2011 and emerging best practices for Boards and Compensation Committees in communicating their compensation stories; The metrics and screens that institutional investors and proxy advisory services used in determining their 2011 Say on Pay recommendations/votes, and recently adopted changes for 2012; Whether the UK say on pay model - of fostering increased dialog and discussion between companies and their investors- is taking root in the US ; The factors that institutional investors and proxy advisory firms will consider in determining whether a company's changes implemented in reaction to a high "no" vote will be considered a satisfactory enough response; Whether say on pay is on track to turn into "pay as I say" as companies feel increasingly forced to craft compensation policies and practices that "toe the line" set by proxy advisory firms; Whether the fewer number of say on pay votes in 2012 will impact how institutional investors will approach their voting processes and decisions this year; How will the Apple, Inc. Shareholder proposal calling for Shareholders to have a "Say on Director Pay" fare, and is this likely to be the "next big thing"?
