What makes remuneration committees effective?

What are the facts about how remuneration committees really work and what makes them effective? Towers Watson has, for several years, worked with Professor Brian Main of Edinburgh University Business School to review in some detail how remuneration committees operate.

In recent months, Towers Watson has conducted a series of interviews with remuneration committee chairmen to update our understanding of how remuneration committees operate and make decisions. This work builds on research that it published in 2008, and supplements the firm’s many years of advising and supporting remuneration committees.
