Stakeholder Incentives
ESG Overtures
ESG or stakeholder incentives are becoming part of many executive pay plans. Whether it’s diversity, equity, and inclusion or reaching carbon-neutral goals, our team has built deep expertise on how client ESG issues can be an integral part of their business strategies and incentive design. Our ESG team is embedded in every client engagement. This accelerates our understanding of each client’s ESG positioning and enhances our ability to evaluate ESG performance, competitive positioning, and change processes to determine the right approach.
Listening to Stakeholders
Stakeholders are pressuring corporations to provide greater transparency and clearly disclose their commitments to ESG goals. Our team follows the shifting interests and priorities of stakeholder groups—investors, employees, consumers, and communities. To that end, each year we publish a global trends research initiative that examines various aspects of stakeholder interests, including governance, board structure and composition, shareholder rights, and the increasing use of stakeholder incentives around the world. This research provides our Farient and global GECN Group team with invaluable insights to inform our clients.
Our ESG-related services include:
