UK Companies Scrutinized Over Executive Pay
Update: 2025-12-14
Description
Major UK companies face scrutiny over executive pay, with the Investment Association warning against using generic arguments to justify large increases. The group criticizes the practice of benchmarking, which can create a ratchet effect in the market. They expect well-substantiated reasons for any pay increases, emphasizing the importance of demonstrating a strong link between pay and performance. Despite growing investor willingness to challenge pay, thresholds for blocking packages remain high, and strengthening investors ability to stop inappropriate pay practices is essential for meaningful change.
