Abfindungen für Vorstandsmitglieder ohne und mit Beschränkungen
[Severance payments to members of executive boards without and with limits]

Abstract

Empfehlungen zur Beschränkung von Abfindungen an vorzeitig ausscheidende Vorstandsmitglieder werden häufig nicht eingehalten. Solange Vorstandsmitglieder nicht gegen ihren Willen entlassen werden dürfen, ist eine Beschränkung der Abfindungen weder im Interesse der Unternehmen noch effizient. Eine solche Entlassungsmöglichkeit sollte geschaffen werden mit festem Abfindungsanspruch.
