Investors urged to vote down RBS pay report
Pirc said yesterday there were “important concerns” over what it says is excessive remuneration for executive directors at RBS, including chief executive Ross McEwan.
“The changes in CEO pay over the last five years are not considered in line with the company’s TSR (total shareholder return) performance over the same period,” the group said.

It said the use of a fixed share allowance “circumvents the spirit” of the EU regulations on banking remuneration.
