Companies that benchmark against NBN
3 companies name NBN as a compensation peer

Each company listed discloses NBN 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 NBN 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

The Bank's executive compensation program reflects a variable pay-for-performance philosophy. The Compensation Committee selects metrics for the Bank's short-term and long-term incentive awards that are intended to incentivize our executives to increase Bank value for our stockholders.
