Shell shareholders vote in favour of CEO's 5m euro pay
[THE HAGUE] Royal Dutch Shell shareholders on Tuesday voted overwhelmingly in favour of chief executive officer Ben van Beurden's 2015 remuneration of 5.135 million euros (S$8.02 million).
More than 86 per cent of shareholders adopted the Anglo-Dutch company's executive remuneration package at Shell's annual general meeting.
The vote follows calls by two major investor advisers to reject the resolution due to a sharp fall in Shell's revenue.
