JPMorgan Chase shareholders on Tuesday rejected the bank’s 2021 compensation plan for its six top executives — a proposal that included $52.6 million in option awards granted to CEO Jamie Dimon.
The measure received 31% support — the lowest such figure since 2009, when JPMorgan first sought shareholder input on pay. Often, the bank’s compensation proposals have found backing from 90% or more of investor votes. The previous low was 61.4% in 2015.
