S&P 500 Comp Committee Positions: CEOs Occupy 10%
– Broc Romanek
Here’s an excerpt from this Equilar blog:
A recent Equilar study found that 37.5% of S&P 500 companies have at least one compensation committee member that is a named executive officer (NEO) at another public company. Of those boards, 27.8% had one outside NEO on their compensation committees, while 8.3% had two sitting executives on their compensation committees. Three or four outside executives served on 1.4% of S&P 500 compensation committees.
