Wachtell Lipton’s “Compensation Committee Guide”

– Lynn Jokela

Here’s the latest 143-page guide for compensation committees from Wachtell Lipton – which includes sample compensation committee charters for NYSE & Nasdaq companies at the back.  As noted in the guide’s introduction, although the guide is generally geared toward directors who are members of a public company compensation committee, the guide is also relevant to members of a compensation committee of a private company, especially if the company may at some point consider accessing public capital markets.
