NEW & IMPROVED - 2009 Bank Compensation Surveys

The 2009 Bank Compensation and Benefits
Surveys are NOW OPEN.

Given a current downturn in the banking industry and the introduction of the Treasury Department's Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), we have decided to update our surveys and provide our participants with additional data breakdown between TARP and Non-TARP banks' compensation data. We will continue to offer our traditional data cuts based on banks' asset size and their geographic location. The 2009 surveys will officially open ONLINE on May 18th, while a traditional paper-based (PDF) questionnaires are already available. Please call us at 312.533.4149 to have a copy of our paper-based (PDF) questionnaire e-mailed to you. Completed questionnaires are due back by July 1st, 2009. The results of our 2009 survey analysis will be available in early September.

The Delves Group Surveys provide you with the invaluable competitive data in today's environment. Now, more than ever before, our trends analysis and benchmarking data will help you:

Hire and retain the best people in today's market;
Design incentive plans and set targets;
Develop salary grades, ranges, and career paths for your most valuable people;
Perform annual reviews of salaries, incentives, benefits, and perquisites.

These comprehensive surveys cover over 100 positions, from CEO to Teller. This year we will attempt to collect data and provide differentiation between compensation paid by TARP and Non-TARP banks in addition to our traditional geographic region and total assets size data cuts. The survey will provide the following information:

Salaries and cash incentives;
Annualized long-term incentive multiples;
Details on executive severance and employment agreements;
Annual and long-term incentive design features;
Prevalence and value of benefits and perquisites.
