Research Reports

Each year, Guerdon Associates’ GECN Group publishes our research report on global executive remuneration and governance trends.

We leverage our expertise in global benchmarking, and ESG topics and engagement to help boards select appropriate remuneration levels, ESG metrics and targets that are consistent with the organisation’s purpose, sustain shareholder value, can be long lived and sufficient for most investors such that remuneration and ESG concerns are being adequately addressed. See our services HERE
