UK executive remuneration on IPO
Policy changes on shifting to a listed environment

A company’s journey to IPO presents many challenges, not least the setting and structuring of executive pay arrangements. Along with implementing a remuneration policy that supports business strategy, remuneration committees need to take into account new regulatory and listing requirements as well as the views and preferences of institutional investors. Further, companies must operate within an environment where investors have a formal “say on pay” through both advisory and binding votes on pay policy.
