How Does Hanjun Wang's Compensation Compare With Similar Sized Companies?

Our data indicates that Beijing Urban Construction Design & Development Group Co., Limited is worth HK$3.2b, and total annual CEO compensation was reported as CN¥1.1m for the year to December 2018. We think total compensation is more important but we note that the CEO salary is lower, at CN¥265k. We note that more than half of the total compensation is not the salary; and performance requirements may apply to this non-salary portion. When we examined a selection of companies with market caps ranging from CN¥1.4b to CN¥5.6b, we found the median CEO total compensation was CN¥2.3m.

This would give shareholders a good impression of the company, since most similar size companies have to pay more, leaving less for shareholders. While this is a good thing, you'll need to understand the business better before you can form an opinion.
