Dick Weil's pay dropped substantially last year, perhaps thanks to shareholder vote.
Janus Capital Group revealed yesterday in a
proxy filing that their CEO's compensation fell to $6.15 million in 2011, down from $20.34 million in 2010, and that new
compensation guidelines will be put in place.
Reuters reported on the news and noted that the changes came after Janus lost a non-binding shareholder
"Say on Pay" vote.
"We take our fiduciary responsibilities to our shareholders very
seriously," Weil said in a separate filing discussing the changes.
Janus paid Weil a $10-million signing bonus in 2010. Yet even excluding that bonus, Weil's pay still fell 40 percent in 2011.
