Skadden’s Executive Compensation and Benefits Group is pleased to provide you with its 2024 Compensation Committee Handbook. This year’s handbook reflects important updates, including regarding:
- Implementation of the SEC’s clawback rules in connection with the Dodd-Frank Act.
- Common missteps in pay-versus-performance disclosure requirements.
- New proxy advisory firm deadlines, calculation rates and policies.
- Exchange listing rules and Delaware corporation law amendments for approvals and timing of equity awards.
- Enforcement actions addressing self-dealing.
- Threats to noncompete arrangements.
Like the previous editions, the handbook is intended to help compensation committee members understand and comply with the duties imposed upon them and to serve as a resource for all those who advise public company compensation committees.
