Olaf John , actuary and former stand up comedian discusses the impact of the financial crisis on compensation.
People have lost their jobs and a large proportion of their savings. Even those who have not been directly affected have been hit by increases in taxes and inflation.
The Capital Requirement Directive has had a direct impact on compensation structures of financial institutions. 40% of bonuses must be deferred 3-5 years and no more than 30% may be paid in cash.
Does this form a solution? What will be the impact of individual performance on the company? What does it mean for London as a city? Will people emmigrate to other financial centers?
The decreasing significance of financial incentives and the move to increased employee engagement, identity economics and an improved work-life balance.
