The duties imposed on compensation committees of publicly traded
companies have evolved and grown over time. The fifth edition of
the Compensation Committee Handbook, authored by our
Executive Compensation and Benefits Group, is intended to help
compensation committee members (and their advisers) understand and
comply with the duties imposed upon them. The Handbook is
deliberately written in a non-technical manner and is intended as
something to educate and provoke questions rather than serve as an
exhaustive compliance manual. It focuses on considerations for
publicly traded companies and specifically those listed on the NYSE
or Nasdaq. Many of the principles discussed have broader
application, however.

The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
about your specific circumstances.
