The Compensation Committee Index
Compensation Comes Under Scrutiny
Executive compensation, say on pay, and transparency are only a few of the challenges contronting Compensation Committees today. Is your Compensation Committee ready for such scrutiny?
The Compensation Committee Index is designed to help you determine how you can make your Compensation Committee more effective and demonstrate best practice to your constituencies and the markets. Ours is the only board driven, anonymous, confidential, and web-based evaluation tool to benchmark Compensation Committees.
Whether you are a public or private company, The Compensation Committee Index will tell you what's working, what isn't, and what members seem to disagree about.
You cannot afford to miss this information.

How does it work?
The Compensation Committee Index is a two-step process that can be facilitated internally or by an outside consultant who works with the board to develop an action plan to respond to any issues raised. Read more about how TBI can integrate with your current evaluation process.
Step 1: Board members (and others, at the board’s discretion), anonymously, confidentially, and securely complete a comprehensive, online questionnaire. This takes approximately 15-20 minutes to complete. Upon completion, the questionnaires are automatically compiled and scored.
Step 2: A report of the results and analysis is immediately available to your evaluation administrator and other key stakeholders. The report, which is a composite and provides no identifying information about the respondents or the company, consists of:
- An overall Compensation Committee Index Score, together with a ranking of committee structure and composition, the role of the Compensation Committee members, and leadership of the committee.
- Top 5 strengths, areas to improve and response ranges.
- Specific feedback on sections, subsections and questions providing scores, ranges and comparisons.
- A detailed inventory of specific questions with scores, ranges and comparisons together with best practices, stock exchange requirements, regulatory rules and relevant Sarbanes-Oxley mandates.
It is as simple as that.
