IoD Ireland Board Director Remuneration and Governance Survey 2025/26

Research Reports

This report offers a unique snapshot of board realities today, drawn from over 230 Directors representing 385 paid directorships across private and plc companies in a broad range of sectors.

The findings highlight expected variances in Director remuneration, influenced by organisational scale and complexity as well as the inflection point in the company life cycle at which the board engages, from early-stage start-ups to mature enterprises. The evolving regulatory landscape intensifies the complexity of Director remuneration decisions, compelling boards to critically assess governance frameworks and ensure they remain robust and responsive amid escalating workloads.
