Samples of Luxury Expenditure Policies

Broc Romanek, CompensationStandards.com

Since the Treasury adopted its interim final rule on June 15th, the first of the requisite “luxury expenditure policies” have been posted online as required. Recall that the board for each TARP company is required to adopt such a policy (as well as file it with Treasury and post it online) before the later of ninety days after the closing date of the agreement between the Treasury and the TARP recipient or September 13th. We have started posting samples of these policies in our “Management Perks” Practice Area.
