ABGSC is an independent Nordic investment bank founded on an inclusive partnership culture. The partnership ensures a long-term commitment from top management and employees. The investment banking industry is characterised by strong competition for highly qualified personnel, and a competitive remuneration model is of great importance to recruit and retain competent management and staff. The remuneration of top management is based on the same principles for remuneration that applies to all partners in the group. Remuneration for partners and employees consists of a fixed remuneration and variable discretionary remuneration, plus pension contribution and other remuneration in kind.
Fixed remuneration consists of base remuneration, pensions and other benefits and the payments related to long-term share incentive plans (LTI). Fixed remuneration shall primarily reflect relevant professional experience and organisational responsibility.
The purpose of LTI is to increase shareholding among partners and strengthen the alignment between shareholders and staff. Shares acquired under the LTI are restricted for 5 years in accordance with the company's Partner Share Agreement. Individuals participating in the LTI will be subject to a pre-defined additional remuneration as a percentage of the value of the shares acquired, payable at the time the shares have vested. The first LTI payments took place in 2022.
Variable remuneration shall reflect a sustainable and risk-adjusted performance as well as performance in excess of that required to fulfil the partners job description as part of the terms of partnership. The assessment of an individual's performance shall consider financial and non-financial parameters and is primarily based on the following criteria:
Earnings that form the basis of any variable remuneration shall consist of risk-adjusted profit measures, considering both current and future risks. Consideration shall be taken to use of liquidity and the actual cost of the capital of the business. If subjective assessments are used to adjust the results based on risk, the considerations taken when adjusting shall be balanced and documented. Both financial and non-financial targets reflecting ABGSC's long-term strategy and business principles shall be used for individual performance assessments. Financial performance criteria shall be forward-looking and determined by the group's and respective employing entity's assessment of credit risks, financial risks and operational risks.
ABGSC has implemented variable remuneration deferral mechanisms for top management in accordance with regulations applicable for their respective partner entities. This mechanism reduces the risk of short-term unauthorised risk-taking and other unacceptable behaviour and supports the group's and the partner entity's long-term business interests and profitability. All deferred variable remuneration may fully or partially be terminated if it can be determined that the variable remuneration was a result of incorrect information or fraudulent/unacceptable behaviour.
Members of top management participate in pension schemes with the same conditions as other partners and employees.
All top management have a partnership termination notice period of 6 months. After the notice period, fixed remuneration, pension contributions and other benefits are stopped. There are no pre-agreed arrangements related to partnership termination, early retirement or additional pension contribution for any staff or member of the top management.
Variable remuneration for all staff within the group is approved by the ABGSC holding board and by the boards of the employing entities where such approval is a regulatory requirement. The approval is based on recommendations from the respective compensation committees and the group's executive committee.
Any changes to the corporate remuneration policies and, hereunder, principles for top management remuneration will be subject to approval from the ABGSC holding board based on recommendations from the compensation committee and the group executive committee.
The highest governing body of the group is its board of directors. The board has a majority of non-executive directors. Remuneration for the board members consists of payments of fees, and is based on the position of the board member. The general meeting determines the remuneration for the board based upon the proposal from the nomination committee. The annual general meeting approves the remuneration for the following mandate period until the next annual general meeting.
Top management includes the CEO and executive committee members that report directly to the CEO.
In addition to having a management responsibility, the top management in front-end positions are directly involved and engaged in business generation. Thus, profitability and the general top management remuneration is partially a function of the company's financial performance. There have not been any events leading to a deduction of previously deferred variable remuneration.
Partners of the group may purchase partner shares, which are settled in cash or financed up to a five-year period carried through by using a forward contract. Partner shares may entitle participation in the company's long-term incentive plan. Partner shares are offered at market price, with a 15% price adjustment reflecting several severe restrictions with regards to the selling (or purchasing) of these shares. See the annual report 2022 for more information.
ABGSC has applied the remuneration policy throughout 2022 in accordance with the mandate given by the previous general meeting.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on whether the remuneration report contains the information required in section 6-16 b of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act and the accompanying regulation and that the information in the remuneration report is free from material misstatements. We conducted our work in accordance with the International Standard for Assurance Engagements (ISAE) 3000 – "Assurance engagements other than audits or reviews of historical financial information".
We obtained an understanding of the remuneration policy approved by the general meeting. Our procedures included obtaining an understanding of the internal control relevant to the preparation of the remuneration report in order to design procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company's internal control. Further we performed procedures to ensure completeness and accuracy of the information provided in the remuneration report, including whether it contains the information required by the law and accompanying regulation. We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
