1 2015 SALARY & INCENTIVE SURVEY FOR BANKS AND CREDIT UNIONS

2 LETTER FROM THE CEO Dear Colleague, 2015 BALANCEDCOMP SALARY & INCENTIVE SURVEY FOR BANKS AND CREDIT UNIONS Prepared by: Anthony Bieker, Economist Christie Summervill, CEO Kenton Hansen, Director of Marketing If you have questions or comments, please contact: Anthony Bieker (316) The economy is growing. The hiring market is becoming increasingly competitive. Companies are capitalizing on growth opportunities, and launching new revenue-generating initiatives. In these times, high-performing organizations realize effective compensation and management systems drive corporate performance and ensure the most value from every compensation dollar. For these reasons, BalancedComp is pleased to present the 2015 Salary & Incentive Survey for Financial Institutions. To give better insight, we have cut our data by asset size, segmented by industry, and provided a combined weighted average. We are excited to provide incentive data this year, but we are disappointed in the low participation by institutions with the smallest assets. Gathering the right data is just the first step necessary to foster a thoughtfully administered salary administration system. If we can be of any assistance in establishing your salary ranges and grades, feel free to reach out to me personally for a complimentary review of your salary administration needs. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS BalancedComp wishes to thank the many hard-working HR professionals who made this survey possible. Without their hours dedicated to compiling this data, there would be no survey. To all of our wonderful clients, the whole BalancedComp team wishes to express our gratitude. We are grateful you chose us as your trusted partners. It is with great pleasure that we continue to serve you each day. Good Growing, Christie Summervill Chief Executive Officer COPYRIGHT 2015 BY BALANCEDCOMP, LLC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

The survey opened on April 1, 2015 and closed on June 30th, In that time, we received 174 respondents, and were able to benchmark more than 80 positions. The survey was conducted via online surveys. Respondents were prompted to answer questions about: institutional characteristics institutional performance employee turnover corporate incentive structure salary and incentive information This data was segmented and grouped by asset size. Positions with 4 or fewer responses were excluded from the survey. A (-) symbol was used to represent an insufficient sample size. TERMINOLOGY : Arithmetic mean of a sample distribution : The point in an ordered distribution at which 25% are below and 75% are above in the sample set : The point in an order distribution at which 75% are below and 25% are above in the sample set Median: The point in an ordered distribution at which an equal number of values are above and below in the sample set # Receiving: The actual number of employees represented in respondent data for that specific position Weighted Bonus: The value resulting from multiplying weighted responses by their relative frequency in the data set Number of EEs Receiving Bonus: The total number of employees in that specific position who received a bonus % of Base: The percentage of average base pay reported as incentive pay for a specific position Sample Size (n): The number of financial institutions unions that responded to the question Advice on using the data STEP 1 - Locate the job: You can always use the Quick Index on page 14 to locate the position s page number, or the use the Job Description Index to find the position that is the best match to your specific job. Then find that position s data for your asset size. STEP 2 - Adjust the national data to your local market: Use the geographic wage differentials starting on page 135 to adjust the national data points to reflect your specific market. If your city is not in the survey, give us a call and we will happily provide it for you. The formula to adjust to your geographic region is: ( Geo / 100 ) * Survey Data STEP 3 - Determine where the appropriate pay level is in the range: Is this position a hard to fill? Try to pay at or slightly above the midpoint. Given the incumbent is performing well, we recommend the non-exempt positions be at midpoint within 3 years. If the position is exempt or executive, we recommend the position be at midpoint in 5 years. STEP 4: Combine data with other surveys: To confidently ensure relevance, use data from multiple surveys. We recommend a minimum of four surveys. 5
