Executive Remuneration and Governance: Trends, Tensions, and Insights

Decisions on executive pay and consequences face unprecedented scrutiny. With competing stakeholder expectations, evolving governance standards, and shifting global context, join us to explore how directors can navigate this challenging terrain. 

Effective decision-making in remuneration packaging is crucial—not only about aligning with stakeholder expectations and mitigate reputational risk but also to guarantee the right outcomes for the business and its long-term success. 

Join us for an engaging and timely discussion on the evolving landscape of executive remuneration and governance. Remuneration experts Emma Grogan and Al Jurangpathy, alongside a panel of experienced directors, will explore:

• ASX trends and impacts on other sectors – in pay structures and practices, with insights from the UK market, and what is the ‘ripple effect’ on other sectors
• ESG integration into reward frameworks – examining the current state, the influence of global forces on the debate around D&I measures, and the options for Australian boards in responding to these
• Board oversight and consequence management – with increasing scrutiny from regulators, shareholders, and community,  how boards can strengthen decision-making
• Outlook for the 2025 reporting season – what directors should anticipate and prepare for

This session is designed to equip directors with practical insights, examples and strategic foresight in a rapidly shifting governance environment. Directors will leave better prepared to make effective decisions that serve both their business and its stakeholders.
