Board ESG Duties
Following implementation of the second European Shareholder Rights Directive (ARUG II) and the revision of the German Corporate Governance Code (DCGK), stock corporation law stipulates that in listed companies the supervisory board must align the management board remuneration structure with the company’s sustainable long-term development.
We advise companies on all aspects of designing and introducing sustainable remuneration models for board members and executives. A particular focus of our work is advising on remuneration plans in regulated sectors and on management board remuneration in accordance with ARUG II and the DCGK.
We can draw on an established remuneration team that is highly respected in the market. It includes experts on corporate and stock corporation law, employment law, regulatory law and tax law. We also bring in highly regarded external remuneration advisors with whom we have been working for many years. This holistic approach ensures that you receive bespoke remuneration advice from a single source.
