The survey found that directors' pay at the 100 largest such firms has risen by 37%, with the average chief executive receiving £2.9m, including salary, benefits, bonuses and gains from share incentive schemes.

Daily TelegraphMonday, 11th August 2003 Personal view: A radical rethink on executive pay is needed to make
it open and fair Few days go by without a new example of something that seems to be
wrong with pay. Yet it is not easy to finger the real problem. Fat cats,
reward for failure, corporate excess: easily said but what does it mean?
The BusinessSunday 16th February 2003 Executive pay - are executive share options now an endangered species?
