How Does Tiger Tyagarajan's Compensation Compare With Similar Sized Companies?
At the time of writing, our data says that Genpact Limited has a market cap of US$7.3b, and reported total annual CEO compensation of US$22m for the year to December 2018. While we always look at total compensation first, we note that the salary component is less, at US$700k. We note that more than half of the total compensation is not the salary; and performance requirements may apply to this non-salary portion. When we examined a selection of companies with market caps ranging from US$4.0b to US$12b, we found the median CEO total compensation was US$6.8m.
Thus we can conclude that Tiger Tyagarajan receives more in total compensation than the median of a group of companies in the same market, and of similar size to Genpact Limited. However, this doesn't necessarily mean the pay is too high. We can get a better idea of how generous the pay is by looking at the performance of the underlying business.
