An insurer created a small media frenzy Monday with a “say on pay” initiative.
Aflac Inc., Columbus, Ga., a supplemental benefits insurer previously best known for selling cancer insurance in Japan and creating the Aflac Duck, gave shareholders a chance to vote on the company’s executive pay-for-performance program.
About 93% of votes were cast in favor of the Aflac executive comp program and 2.5 against, Aflac says.
