With the SEC (finally) finalizing key rules under the Dodd-Frank Act, companies are working on complying with Pay-versus-Performance rule in their upcoming proxy statement and thinking through the implications of the Clawback rule for their executive compensation programs. Like almost everything in executive compensation, it all winds up being more complicated than you’d think.

The webcast will address:

• The requirements of the Pay-versus-Performance rule, the unanswered questions companies will need to consider in preparing their disclosure, and whether and how to go beyond the required disclosure
• How investors may view this additional disclosure and how to communicate effectively with investors and others about Pay-versus-Performance in the upcoming proxy season
• The requirements of the Clawback rule and the prospects for changes, if any, that may be made as the rule is translated into listing standards
• How the Clawback rule may affect future compensation programs – and what, if anything, compensation committees and management should be considering now
• The implications of the Clawback rule for attracting and retaining talent, as well as for the company’s financial processes and compliance programs

Who should attend:

• Directors – especially members of compensation committees
• C-suite executives including CEOs, Chief Human Resources Officers and Generals Counsel
• Senior human capital professionals in the fields of compensation and benefits
• Senior governance professionals, including corporate secretaries, investor relations executives
• Other in-house and outside counsel
• Investors, compensation consultants, and other executive compensation professionals
