As increases in pay have not always been matched by improved performance,<strong> greater scrutiny by boards and compensation committees on fair use of remuneration benchmarks, increased use of performance criteria and more clawback provisions, is likely.&#8221;<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p><strong>In 2011, average executive salaries in Asia increased by an average of 7 per cent<\/strong>, while the vast majority of European organisations are increasing their executive salaries by an average of 2.5 per cent in 2011.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Salary hikes in the West are being restrained owing to poor economic growth and continued pay scrutiny in light of the current Euro-zone, banking and debt crisis<\/strong>, Mercer says in its Global Executive Pay Trends report.<\/p>\n<p><a
