The Compensation Committee Handbook ReviewBoards of Directors, and especially compensation committees within the board, are in a period of transition. They are required to be more independent from the company and its management than ever before, and the mega-compensation packages of CEOs is now getting more negative publicity, regulatory scrutiny, and public pushback. This valuable handbook can provide compensation committee members with helpful information on what to do and how to proceed in discharging their responsibilities.
The book has 15 chapters divided into three parts.
Part One describes what the compensation committee is and does. It also covers how the board should go about selecting and training the members of the compensation committee. CEO succession and evaluation is covered in a very helpful way as is the issue of director compensation (since they have so much more to do nowadays).
Part Two covers the legal and regulatory issues boards and committees face. It covers issues of corporate governance (from the board's point of view), disclosure of executive and director compensation, securities issues, tax rules and issues, accounting rules and issues, and ERISA and labor law, rules, and issues.
Part Three deals with the practical applications of these rules, regulations, and duties. It covers executive employment, severance, and change-in-control arrangements, incentive compensation, equity based compensation, executive pension-benefit, welfare-benefit, and perquisites. There is also a chapter dealing with option grants, the repricing of stock options, and if the company should "go dark", which is different than going private.
While not the most lively material, the authors do a great job of keeping it from becoming too dry or dusty. And if you need to know this material, you will love this book's organization and wealth of helpful information.
