This is an invitation only session. Incentive compensation programs are important tools for financial institutions. These arrangements serve several objectives, including attracting and retaining skilled labor, promoting better performance, and allowing an organization to better control costs while increasing profit.
If not designed properly, however, compensation arrangements can provide executives and employees with incentives to take imprudent risks that may not be consistent with the long-term health of the organization. Poorly designed incentive programs can inadvertently reward employees, contractors, and service providers for unethical behavior or other unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices.
This roundtable offers a valuable opportunity to meet and discuss these challenges with your peers and identify best practices you can leverage at your institution to enhance the value of your incentive compensation/reward programs.
