Render Posted March 3, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Switzerland's voters go to the polls to decide on controversial proposals which would impose strict limits on the salaries awarded to top executives. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-21615080 Swiss referendum 'backs executive pay curbs' Swiss voters appear to have backed proposals to impose some of the world's strictest controls on executive pay, projected referendum results suggest. Some 70% are thought to have supported plans to give shareholders a veto on compensation and ban big payouts for new and departing managers. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-21647937 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhen Posted March 3, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I have no opinion as to whether the Swiss fat cats will be put on a diet or not. I am continually impressed though that the Swiss process of referendum and recall allows for this type of true people power. I am envious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
