This remuneration methodology was not revised from 2010 to 2016.
In 2016 the Company attracted the world-wide renowned consultant Ernst & Young (CIS) BV (the Moscow branch), which conducted a survey of the practice of remuneration to board members of large Russian companies with comparable business size. Based on the results of the analysis, a new method for calculating the remuneration of members of the Board of Directors of the Company was developed, according to which the basic part of the remuneration of each member of the Board of Directors is set at RUB 3.51 mn, which corresponds to the average market level of remuneration. This approach will allow retaining and attracting professionals to the Board of Directors of the Company.
The General Meeting of Shareholders of PJSC RusHydro (Minutes No. 16 dated June 27, 2017) approved a new Regulation on the payment of remuneration and compensation to members of the Board of Directors of PJSC RusHydro.
