Companies that benchmark against KRNY
11 companies name KRNY as a compensation peer

Each company listed discloses KRNY in its own benchmarking peer group, as disclosed in each company's most recent proxy statement within the last two proxy seasons. Two companies are therefore absent by design: one that named KRNY in an earlier year and no longer does, and one whose own most recent disclosure is older than the last two seasons.

Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis

Our compensation philosophy is driven by the following guiding principles that reinforce the critical connections between business performance, stockholder value creation and senior leadership: Pay for Performance: A substantial portion of a NEO's total compensation should be variable and contingent upon the attainment of certain specific and measurable annual- and long-term business performance objectives. Stockholder Alignment: Executives should be compensated through a mix of components (base salaries, annual- and long-term incentives) designed to create long-term value for our stockholders, as well as foster a culture of ownership. Competitiveness: Target compensation is set at a level that is competitive with that being offered to individuals holding similar positions at other organizations with which we compete for business and talent. Attraction and Retention: The executive compensation program should enable Kearny Bank to retain superior executive talent, as well as attract additional top-tier leadership.
