Foresters Board has a Human Capital and Governance Committee ("HCGC"), comprised of independent directors. Its mandate requires the Committee to recommend to the Board the annual compensation for the CEO and to approve the annual compensation for the CEO and their direct reports. Every two years, a formal review of executive compensation is completed, including comparator organizations, and competitiveness of total compensation levels (i.e., base pay and incentives). This review is done by external compensation consults who are approved by the HCGC and who provide comparable data for the financial services/ insurance industry. The information is reviewed in detail by the HCGC. Foresters HCGC uses this biennial compensation information to review salary and incentive levels for the CEO and their direct reports; this data is used to inform recommendations for any changes to compensation. |
