period of four years. Their individual remuneration is determined
forthat specific period. Managing Board members are not eligible
for variable pay. The remuneration policy forthe Managing Board
was approved by the General Members Council in 2017.
The remuneration policy forthe Managing board consists of two
clusters of functions: Chair of the Managing Board, and Member
of the Managing Board. Regularly, the positions within the
Managing Board are benchmarked against a cross-industry and a
financial peer group and salary ranges might be adjusted based
on the outcomes. Based on the 2017 benchmark, salary ranges
were setto those two function levels.The remuneration structure
and salary ranges of the Managing Board are as follows:
Salary Ranges of Managing Board
Salary Ranges Minimum Maximum
Chairman of the Managing Board 884,000 1,154,400
Member of the Managing Board €477,000 €884,000
With the installation of the Managing Board in 2017, reference
points perfunction weredefined. Individual proposals forthe new
Managing Board members were based on the external value of
the function (based on the benchmark), as well as on the
members' personal capabilities and their leadership profile. The
remuneration packages reflect the values of Rabobank's
remuneration policy. In 2018, two members of the Managing
Board were re-appointed foranotherfouryears. No changes were
made in their individual remuneration packages. These packages
corresponded to the applicable salary range.
Apart from their salary, the members of the Managing Board
receive secondary employment conditions such as a pension
scheme. The members' individual pension contribution is, part
of the total fixed annual salary, along with the remuneration on
the basis of the salary ranges. There is no entitlement to a car
lease arrangement, but a company car policy is in place for all
members of the Managing Board forthe purpose of commuting
and business travels.
In 2017, the aim of the transition of the Board of Directors to the
Managing Board was - among others - the creation of less
hierarchical levels, and as a result thereof, a decrease of total
salary costs within the Executive levels. Recently, a cost analysis
showed that between May 2017 and December 2018 the number
of Executive level positions decreased. In addition, a decrease of
total salary costs over all Executive levels in the Netherlands was
noted.
