- CEO Performance
- Investment Performance
- Remuneration Performance
Further insight into Obermatt's company and CEO rankings are available by contacting Obermatt.
The result is based on Thomson Reuters data and Obermatt correlation algorithms. Obermatt clients may have deviating Bonus Index results due to their use of custom peer groups, different metrics and additional financial adjustments.

Total remuneration and compensation recommendation
The Obermatt Index is used to provide recommended levels of executive remuneration and compensation based on indexing performance. This approach rewards true performance only, removing the impact of external factors which often distort executive remuneration and compensation. As the Bonus Index is objective and provided by an independent third party, it is accepted by major shareholders and their representatives — enabling boards and executives to rely on a mutually trusted solution.
