The L-Blast | August 2021

L-Blast Header

Another proxy season is behind us, and like every year, we had an opportunity to take notice of trends, specifically as they relate to executive compensation disclosures. In this case, we see companies are taking approaches to more clearly portray the link between pay, performance, and shareholder alignment.
