It has been revealed that ANZ Bank CEO Shayne Elliott warned that people may be deterred from taking up executive roles in the sector if banks are required to reveal the reasons why executives’ pay has been reduced. Elliott expressed concern about the issue in a letter to financial services royal commissioner Kenneth Hayne in early December. Elliott himself has had his remuneration reduced by $950,000 in the current financial year.
