UK: ABI remuneration guidelines - letter to remuneration committees

The Association of British Insurers has written to remuneration committee chairmen highlighting aspects of its remuneration guidelines which are of particular relevance in the current economic climate: see here (Word). The ABI states, for example, that:

Remuneration structures that seek to increase tax efficiency should not result in additional costs to the company or an increase in its own tax bill. Remuneration Committees should be aware of the potential damage to the company’s and shareholders’ reputation from implementing such schemes".
