2016 Survey on Executive Compensation Is Now Open

Executive Director

The NCEO's ESOP Executive Compensation Survey is the only source that exists for high-quality, reliable data that is specific to ESOPs. The NCEO asks that all ESOP companies contribute to this unique resource by completing our questionnaire, which should take no longer than 20 minutes. You may have received an email invitation directly earlier today. If not, please click here to complete the questionnaire.

The ESOP Executive Compensation Survey is designed to give you ready-to-use comparison data on:

  • Total compensation for seven different executive positions (CEO, CFO, COO, etc.)
  • The prevalence of different forms of compensation (SARs, cash bonuses, deferred compensation, etc.)
  • Types and schedules of vesting for equity compensation awards
  • Board practices for making decisions about compensation
  • Breakdowns based on industry, company revenues, number of employees, and ESOP characteristics

Any and all identifying information will be removed from the data before we begin the analysis.

Companies that complete the survey will receive a free summary of the results and the opportunity to purchase the full report at a significant discount. This questionnaire is open for a limited time; we will publish results in early 2017.

Please feel free to reach out to the NCEO's research director Nancy Wiefek ([email protected]) with any questions.
