Buck Consultants, an ACS company and one of the world’s leading human resource and benefits consulting firms, has published a white paper titled “Can Your Long-Term Incentive Plan Become More Performance Based Again?” The paper assesses the relative strength of the linkages between company performance and each type of equity when included in a Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP).

NEW YORK: May 12, 2008 – Buck Consultants, an ACS company and one of the world’s leading human resource and benefits consulting firms, has published a white paper titled “Can Your Long-Term Incentive Plan Become More Performance Based Again?” The paper assesses the relative strength of the linkages between company performance and each type of equity when included in a Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP).

LTIPs typically provide the largest component of senior executives’ compensation, most often through one or more of three equity-based types: Stock Options, Restricted Stock and Performance Shares.

Buck’s thought leadership makes the case for increased use of Performance Shares as a key component of LTIPs. The white paper can be accessed on Buck’s Web site at:
