Maximum variable compensation potential is a multiple of base salary and reflects performance achievements relative to peers with similar disciplines. The performance review considers the asset class, manager experience, and maturity of the product. The incentive compensation is based on trailing strategy performance and is weighted at one third for the three-year period, one-third for the five-year period and one-third for the ten-year period. He also receives performance-based compensation as portfolio manager for a private investment fund. The firm's CIO and senior management review the components annually.
