8. Executive Compensation Chairman Cox has repeatedly expressed concern about executive compensation being properly reported “it is important that we stay up to date and even more important that investors and consumers have all the information they need in order to obtain the best possible services from executives and managers at the lowest possible price. Over time, the prevalent forms of compensation have migrated away from what is transparent to what is opaque. In many cases, the lion’s share of an executive’s compensation might come in forms that almost entirely elude disclosure. That clearly needs to be addressed.”
