Directors' pay in the privatized utilities

Article Abstract:

Recent research has looked at the links between the salary package of the most highly paid director and company performance in the privatized utilities. Its findings include the fact that top pay expansion in the privatized utilities has exceeded that of the average worker during the 1990s and that there is no clear statistical relationship between directors' salary levels and measures of pre-dated company performance. It therefore seems clear that doubts should be expressed about the role of remuneration committees in setting boardroom pay levels in the privatized utilities.
