On October 15, Corporate Partner A.J. Kess and Corporate Associate Yafit Cohn participated in a Practising Law Institute webinar, “SEC's Pay Ratio Rule: What Companies Need to do to Prepare.”  The webinar focused on how companies can prepare for compliance with the SEC’s final rule implementing the Dodd-Frank requirement that issuers disclose the median annual total compensation of all their employees (minus the chief executive officer), the annual total compensation of their CEO, and the ratio of these two amounts.  Topics covered included key aspects of the pay ratio rule, variables left open by the SEC’s rule, and practical guidance to issuers and their corporate counsel on the steps they need to start taking now, as well as over the long-term.
