TSR Performance Monitor

The grant of Relative Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) long-term incentive awards is a powerful motivator to help drive company performance. But the grant is just the beginning. Monitoring TSR experience is critical to keep stakeholders informed and reinforce the plan’s objectives.

WTW’s TSR Performance Monitor online application makes it easy for companies to stay on top of plan performance in real time and eliminate surprises. It allows management to communicate with executives and the board, support financial reporting, and evaluate award design decisions. TSR Performance Monitor provides companies direct online access to monitor the daily performance of their TSR awards. Automated updates reduce manual errors, free up your team’s time and gives boards confidence in reporting.
