Smart TSR Award Design: Trends and Best Practices

Smart TSR Award Design: Trends and Best Practices

Includes a Live Web Event on 07/09/2025 at 1:30 PM (EDT)

Relative TSR remains the predominant performance metric in long-term incentive plans—but does it still align with your company’s goals? This session examines the pros and cons, emerging best practices, and current market trends.

We’ll dive into critical topics like payout curve design, peer group selection, accounting implications, investor expectations, and participant communication—grounded in real-world experience. Gain practical insights to help you determine whether relative TSR still deserves the top spot in your LTI strategy.

Key questions this webinar will answer:

  • What are the key design features to ensure your TSR awards are effective?
  • How should you handle changes in your TSR peer group?
  • What are the proxy advisor concerns and accounting complexities you need to be aware of?
  • When does it make sense to explore alternatives to TSR?

A recording of the webinar will be posted shortly after conclusion of the live broadcast.
