Britain’s CEOs Receive Record Pay in 2023

Record-Breaking CEO Salaries in 2023

In 2023, the median pay for CEOs of FTSE-100 companies reached a historic high, averaging 4.19 million pounds, according to the High Pay Centre. This marked a modest increase of 2.2% from the previous year. However, this growth has decelerated compared to the rapid rises seen in the prior two years. Despite the slowing growth, the pay packages offered to senior executives remain a contentious issue, particularly as workers across the UK press for improved wages.
