Executive Pay: Conflicts of Interest Among Compensation Consultants

House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform
Abstract
The Committee on Oversight and Government Reform investigated whether compensation consultants hired by large publicly traded companies meet the standard of independence to prevent conflicts of interest. The report states that consultants hired by corporate executives to administer employee benefit plans or to provide other services to a company may not be able to provide objective advice about the compensation of the executives who hire them. The report examined executive compensation services and other services provided to the 250 largest publicly traded companies. The report finds that compensation consultant conflicts of interest are widespread.
