Implementing "Hold Through Retirement" for Equity Awards

Our September-October and November-December 2008 issues described why companies should be implementing a hold-through-retirement policy for senior executives as a means for not only addressing shareholders’ valid concerns about executive compensation, but also for avoiding the creation of incentives that lead to unnecessary and excessive risks. [For a discussion of implementing a hold through-retirement policy in the context of conducting a risk analysis of compensation programs, see the model disclosure included in the Winter 2009 issue of our Proxy Disclosure Updates newsletter.]
