Selected issues respecting stock based compensation schemes
Article Abstract:
Current issues in stock based compensation of executives include four areas. In the deferred compensation area, a form of irrevocable grantor trust called a rabbi trust has come in vogue. In the disclosure area, the SEC has proposed amendments to the rules for proxies. New developments have also come in the area of proxy voting for plans which come under ERISA. Another area is the new rules for section 16 of the 1934 Securities Exchange Act which helps to control requests for interpretation or advice.
