CURRENT SURVEYS

2023 Private Company Director Compensation Survey

In Canada, a significant portion of businesses are privately-held. Increasingly, private companies are adopting advisory or fiduciary boards to improve their corporate governance. While publicly-traded companies are required to disclose their director compensation and corporate governance practices, this information is not readily available for privately-held companies.

CGP is dedicated to delivering valuable insights and advice for clients. To meet this commitment, CGP has partnered with WATSON Advisors Inc., and Family Enterprise Canada to collect information on director compensation and governance practices at privately-held companies to provide organizations with additional visibility into market practices.

Please contact us to purchase a standard or custom report of the 2023 Private Company Director Compensation Survey.

Miss out on the survey? You can still participate here. Participation is free and all survey participants will receive a snapshot of director compensation practices in Canada’s privately-held market.
