The Canadian Coalition for Good Governance (CCGG) has published its annual Best Practices guide, which includes examples of what it considers to be excellent proxy circular disclosure by Canadian reporting issuers. The examples and accompanying annotations highlight both fundamental and evolving best practices in corporate governance and executive compensation.
On the topic of corporate governance practices, the 2024 Best Practices publication includes discussion and examples of disclosure related to majority voting, director independence, board composition, education and assessments, director compensation and share ownership, and strategic planning and risk management oversight. In terms of executive compensation, the guide looks at disclosure linking executive compensation with the corporation’s strategy, objectives and risk management, as well as more specific compensation issues such as the use of non-GAAP measures, executive share ownership requirements, termination and change of control benefits, retirement benefits and perquisites, say on pay and more.
