Remuneration Consulting Services
Proactive, Contextualized Advice Starts Here
Farient Advisors offers comprehensive remuneration, performance, and corporate governance services to public, private, and pre- and post-IPO companies. Our professionals work closely with boards of directors and management to design customised remuneration solutions that address today’s challenges while anticipating what may be on the horizon.
Just like you, we hate surprises. Our services are designed to create defensible pay programs that link remuneration to performance, set clear goals and performance metrics, and can be explained to investors. In fact, we wrote the book on it: Fair Pay, Fair Play: Aligning Executive Performance and Pay (Jossey-Bass, 2010) continues to be a go-to resource for consulting services and governance professionals. With the expanding role of the Remuneration Committee and its greater focus on sustainability, stakeholders, and shifting disclosure requirements, our experienced consultants guide management and the board to perform the basics, avoid blind spots, and plan for what’s coming next.
We Ask Questions, Listen, Collaborate
We work closely with management and the board’s Remuneration Committee to do the right things right. With the responsibilities of the Remuneration Committee continuing to expand, its members are devoting more time and energy to human capital management and environmental, social, and governance issues. How these and other factors affect executive incentive plans is where our team excels. Today, executive pay plans must balance the interests of all stakeholders. And, in fact, many Remuneration Committees are changing their charters (and adopting new names) to reflect their additional duties such as human resources, talent management, human capital, management development, and diversity committees.
Fine-Tune Communication with Stakeholders
We know how to design, build, and tell our clients’ pay story. Farient Advisors understands the intricacies of executive pay and corporate governance performance. Our remuneration advisory services help clients develop the right pay programmes to align the interests of stakeholders with those of management. There has never been a better time to re-evaluate executive and director pay, or to fine-tune your company’s story.
This service includes:
Diagnosis of issues to determine top strategic priorities
Incorporation of priority issues into the annual planning calendar and placement of all committee topics in meetings throughout the year. Thorough preparation of meeting agendas with time allocations noted
A summary of remuneration philosophy, peer group, program design, and equity spending on one handy reference sheet
Provide guidance on committee protocols, e.g., the need for prep meetings, executive sessions, the resources required, and other protocols
Outline board oversight responsibilities and determine which ones should be owned by the Remuneration Committee
