Our earlier coverage of executive pay trends at South Africa’s JSE Top 200 companies highlighted how variable compensation for CEOs and CFOs has been rising much faster than fixed pay, intensifying scrutiny of boardroom decisions. We also noted new Companies Act requirements from May 2026, including mandatory pay-ratio disclosures and binding shareholder votes on remuneration that can restrict non-executive directors’ roles on pay committees if rejected repeatedly.
