THE COMMITTEE ENSURES THAT INDEPENDENT COMPARATIVE COMPENSATION STUDIES ARE CONDUCTED ON AN BIENNIAL BASIS TO GAUGE THE COMPETITIVENESS OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION AT CFA INSTITUTE. THE MOST RECENT EXECUTIVE MARKET STUDY WAS CONDUCTED IN FY2023, WHEN CFA INSTITUTE RETAINED A GLOBAL MANAGEMENT CONSULTING FIRM TO PROVIDE COMPETITIVE PAY BENCHMARKS THAT REFLECT THE MARKETS FROM WHICH CFA INSTITUTE WOULD MOST LIKELY RECRUIT EXECUTIVE TALENT. PEER GROUP SELECTION SPANNED DIFFERENT INDUSTRY SECTORS, INCLUDING NOT-FOR-PROFIT AND FINANCIAL SERVICES FIRMS, AND GENERAL INDUSTRY. THE NOT-FOR-PROFIT PEER GROUP SELECTION WAS BASED ON CRITERIA THAT INCLUDED MISSION, REVENUE, HEADCOUNT AND GLOBAL PRESENCE. PAY DATA WAS COLLECTED FROM PUBLICLY DISCLOSED IRS FORM 990S. DATA FOR THE OTHER INDUSTRY SECTORS WAS SOURCED USING BOTH THIRD-PARTY SURVEY DATA AND INFORMATION DISCLOSED ON PUBLIC FILINGS. THE CONSULTING FIRM PERFORMED THIS STUDY ON AN INDEPENDENT FEE BASIS. ADDITIONALLY, THE CFA INSTITUTE PAC COMMITTEE ALSO ENGAGES INDEPENDENT ADVISORS TO HELP INTERPRET HOW THE REPORTED MARKET DATA APPLIES TO CFA INSTITUTE'S EXECUTIVE POSITIONS.
