<p> Criticism of excessive executive pay may finally be hitting
home. Reacting to shareholder protests, Coca-Cola reduced the
compensation of its chairman Roberto Goizueta $59 million, to a
mere $4.5 million. Goizueta received a 10% raise in salary,
bonus and incentives but was not offered any stock options. Last
year he was awarded 1 million shares, worth $59.4 million, on
top of his pay. Coca-Cola's operating profits had jumped 18%
despite a treacherous year; even so, the company wanted to avoid
another wave of stockholder complaints.
