Overview
Prudential Practice Guide (PPG) 511 - Remuneration is guidance issued by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) to assist APRA-regulated institutions in identifying and prudently managing risks arising from remuneration arrangements. The guide supports compliance with APRA's governance standards by promoting remuneration practices that align with sound risk management, prudent governance, and long-term financial stability. PPG 511 emphasizes that remuneration frameworks should encourage appropriate risk-taking behaviour, strengthen accountability, and ensure that executives and staff are not rewarded for poor risk management outcomes. The guide is aligned with international principles for sound compensation practices and provides practical guidance on developing effective remuneration policies and governance arrangements.
