Australian companies have been put on notice that they need to improve transparency around huge pay packets paid to top CEOs, after a study released on Tuesday by the Australian Council of Superannuation Investors (ACSI) showed Domino's Pizza boss Don Meij has become the highest paid CEO in Australia, taking home $36.8 million last year. Mr. Meij beat out Peter and Steven Lowy of Westfield Corp (at $25.9 million) and Nicholas Moore of Macquarie Group (at $25.1 million). Ivan and Kenneth have debated whether they believed tighter scrutiny should apply to watch-over the salary of CEO's salary packages.
