Inside this white paper:
ERI’s Canadian Executive Compensation Trends is a quarterly report that measures trends in executive compensation using the top 1,000 publicly-traded Canadian companies by market capitalization in both 2014 and 2015.
The 1,000 companies included in December 2016 Canadian Executive Compensation Trends collectively represent roughly 97.6% of the investable Canadian stock market.
Mean revenue for the index decreased 0.5% from 2014 to 2015.
Manufacturers of Industrial Metals & Minerals represent 27% of the index, while Energy, Technology, and Other Basic Materials manufacturers combine for an additional third of the participating companies.
Executives in the 75th percentile of the mid cap group experienced a 16.5% decrease in total direct compensation, due in larger part to a 15.5% decrease in incentives coupled with a 4.5% decrease in equity awards in 2015.
Although the typical CEO of a mid-cap company received a stock award in 2015 that was 9% higher than in 2014, the typical option award was 23.7% lower in 2015.
