The human resources committee must produce a report on remuneration annually; the report must disclose the remuneration of the president and chief executive officer, the five most highly remunerated officers who assume or have assumed management responsibilities in the Fund and the five most highly remunerated officers from among all the legal persons at least 90% of whose common shares are held directly or indirectly by the Fund, except those referred to in section 37.1.

For the purposes of the report, the disclosure of the remuneration covers, for each person concerned, the following elements and any corresponding parameters:

(2)  the variable pay paid, the co-invested amounts granted, and the amounts paid under a long-term profit sharing plan, where applicable;

For the purposes of the second paragraph, the value of the remuneration corresponds to the sum of the elements referred to in subparagraphs 1 to 7 of the third paragraph. Likewise, the severance pay must be disclosed in full in the annual report covering the date of the officer’s departure, regardless of whether payment of the severance pay has been deferred in whole or in part.

The Minister of Finance may specify the scope of the elements and parameters referred to in the third paragraph as well as the form in which they must be presented in the annual report, in particular by publishing a template for that purpose on the website of the Minister’s department.
