BDLive reports that Murray & Roberts (M&R) paid CEO Henry Laas R14.7m in the financial year to June, made up of R5.9m in guaranteed pay, R6.4m in short-term incentives and R24m in long-term incentives.
This was even as the construction group’s net profit declined for the third year in a row, and executives failed fully to meet a number of targets to unlock short-term bonuses.

In his opinion, the executive bonuses were excessive in the light of the poor share price performance.
