Abstract:

With so much on their plates, it is not surprising that Board pay continues to rise steadily among the nation’s biggest companies. The median total “cost” of Board oversight – including Board and committee fees – reached approximately $1.8 million for each Top 200 company, an increase of 13% over the previous year. Median Board pay per company surged 12% to $204,000, marking the third year of double-digit growth. Director pay now tops $100,000 at all but six of the nation’s biggest companies. Pearl Meyer & Partners’ 2006 Director Compensation report provides a summary and analysis of how the nation’s major companies are changing Board pay practices to reflect Directors’ greater time demands, pressures and responsibilities.
