On this episode of The Executive Compensation Podcast, join Jeff Keckley and Ron Rosenthal as they break down the purpose of stock ownership guidelines, how they support alignment with shareholders, and why companies should revisit these policies as their compensation programs evolve. They outline how guidelines are typically structured, what counts as ownership, how external stakeholders evaluate them, and the growing use of holding requirements as a complement or alternative to traditional ownership timelines.
