Wrong, its call BOD accountability to the shareholders. Most every successful fortune 500 company ties compensation directly to corporate success. I want to know that the management of the company has at least as much to lose as its investors. Percentage wise its a smart way to track performance. You saying it is not important is irrelavant to me. Of course each of us must guage our own level of risk. But, management accountability is a definite factor to be weighed when assessing that risk.
