There are plenty of reasons to take a fresh look at executive compensation. 

• We anticipate a US economy with low-growth, sustained inflation, and relatively high interest rates in 2024. 
• The threats of economic disruptions from geopolitical tensions are rising.
• Companies are facing tremendous opportunities – and investment needs -- relating to the digital and sustainability transformations of their industries. 
• And, of course, companies are setting compensation against the backdrop of the SEC’s pay-for-performance and, critically, the clawback rule. 

Join Julia Petty, Partner at Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton, Blair Jones, Managing Director at Semler Brossy, and Wayne Carnall, Former Chief Accountant at the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to discuss:

• What are the emerging practices and remaining open questions as companies adopt no-fault clawback policies?
• What adjustments, if any, are companies making to their compensation programs in light of the clawback rule?
• What is the likely impact of the rule and how should companies communicate any changes to compensation programs internally and externally?
• What changes are coming from the SEC on HCM disclosure, and what should companies be doing now?
• What are the lessons from the first year of the pay-for-performance disclosure rule in terms of implementation and reaction?
• What should companies ask investors during off-season engagement?
• What should boards do to prepare for the 2024 proxy season on executive compensation?
