PERNOD RICARD - Universal Registration Document 2019-2020
2. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Compensation policy
In regularly reviewing the various aspects of compensation, the members of the Compensation Committee pay particular attention to ensuring that the policy applied to the Group’s Executive Director is consistent with the policy applied to the members of the Group’s Senior Management both in France and internationally. The compensation of the members of the Executive Board (excluding the Chairman and CEO), which is set by General Management, comprises a fixed annual portion, plus a variable portion representing an attractive incentive, for which the criteria are largely based on the Group’s financial performance, as is the case for the Executive Director. Qualitative criteria to evaluate individual performance are also applied to this variable financial portion. The Chairmen of the Group’s direct affiliates, who are members of the Executive Committee, also receive compensation comprising a fixed portion, which is set in proportion to individual responsibilities, plus a variable portion, for which the quantitative criteria depend firstly on the financial performance of the entity they manage and secondly on the Group’s results, with a view to strengthening solidarity and collegiality. The Chairmen are also evaluated using individual qualitative criteria.
The same performance indicators thus apply to the key players in the Group’s business development, through the structure of and the method for evaluating the variable portion of their annual compensation. For a number of years, all members of the Executive Committee, including the Chairman and CEO, have also been evaluated on the basis of their employee development and management performance and the implementation of Sustainability & Responsibility (S&R) projects. The total amount of fixed compensation awarded to the members of the Executive Committee, including the Executive Director, amounted to €7.7 million for FY20 (unchanged from FY19). In addition to this, variable compensation (relating to FY19) of €7.1 million was paid (compared with €6.5 million in FY19). The total recurring expense in respect of pension commitments for members of the Executive Committee, including the Executive Director, was €4.8 million in the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2020 (compared with €5 million as at 30 June 2019).
