2010: An Executive Compensation Odyssey
Featuring: George H. Bostick, Benefits Tax Counsel, U.S. Treasury Department and Daniel T. Chaudoin, Assistant Director Enforcement Division, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
Negative publicity and legislative and enforcement initiatives are rapidly changing how business organizations compensate their executives. Corporate boards and executives need to re-examine their executive compensation packages to be in line with the current environment, and to comply with new governance and securities rules. Change will not come easy, in part because the old tax rules remain and can complicate the process. In this webinar, three panels comprised of government officials and executive compensation attorneys and accountants will examine how corporate governance and securities rule changes are leading companies to revise their executive compensation packages, and how tax and other economic hurdles make change difficult. The webinar will be of interest to executive compensation professional service providers, as well as to directors (particularly those on compensation committees), chief executive officers, general counsel, human resource executives and finance executives at public companies. The panelists will focus on practical strategies that corporate boards and executives may use to respond to the changes, without completely disrupting the present economic expectations of the companies and the affected executives. The Hon. Michael G. Oxley* will provide commentary.
