How do directors from different universities compare in terms of benchmark-relative returns, board fees, and tenure? Directors with multiple universities are counted in each.
Alpha (Market-Adjusted Return): Calculated as each director's company stock return minus the NZ50 benchmark return during their tenure. A positive alpha indicates the company outperformed the market while the director served on the board. Averaged across all board appointments where performance data is available.
Board Fees: Latest-year total board remuneration from remuneration_history. Excludes executive compensation. If a director serves on multiple boards, fees are averaged across companies.
Tenure: Years since appointment date for current board positions. Longest current appointment used per director.
Multi-University Directors: Directors who attended multiple universities appear in the rankings for each institution. Numbers in parentheses show how many alumni contributed data to each metric.
