Founded in 2006, Exequity was among the first firms to recognize and act upon the need for independent compensation advisory services. Since that time, we have been at the forefront of partnering with boards and senior management teams on complex issues involving executive compensation, governance, talent management, and corporate transactions. Exequity is recognized as a leader in the executive pay arena, advising hundreds of clients across all industries. In addition to being at the forefront of executive compensation design and corporate governance consultation, Exequity maintains the deepest roster of technical advisors, ensuring both the most sophisticated approach to pay design and adherence with relevant technical requirements and governance strictures. We routinely advise leading U.S. companies on a wide variety of board-level topics, including benchmarking and incentive design, technical (tax, accounting, valuation), corporate governance (ISS, Glass Lewis), and corporate transactions (IPOs, spin-offs). Exequity's distinguishing characteristic is our consulting approach: we seek to provide practical solutions to the specific challenges our clients face, backed by innovative thinking. Exequity continuously improves the tools and resources available to address our clients’ needs by developing and deploying new analytical and conceptual models. Examples include Market Analytics for peer group development and relative TSR modeling and design, as well as the Incentive Zone Calibrator for establishing appropriate performance ranges in incentive plans. As much as every client is unique, so is our guidance.
