Companies tie a larger chunk of CFO pay to performance

CFO payment structures are growing to become more dependent on performance-based incentives, according to The Wall Street Journal.

Compensation Advisory Partners studied 119 companies with a median revenue of $13 billion without a change in CEO or CFO in the last three years.

The study found that 59 percent of CFOs' long-term incentives were tied to performance in 2017, up from 54 percent in 2016 and 46 percent in 2011. Stock options made up 32 percent of long-term bonuses for CFOs in 2011, but dropped down to 17 percent in 2017.
