Henderson Group is to cut potential future bonus payouts for its chief executive and chief financial officers and link their incentive awards to a wider set of performance measures.

Last year's annual meeting on May 1 saw an advisory vote on Henderson's remuneration report for directors, including chief executive Andrew Formica and chief financial officer Roger Thompson, approved by more than 50% of shareholders, although votes against the pay report or abstentions made up a combined 28.99%.
