There has been mixed news from major UK housebuilders recently.

While a number of companies are laying off staff, with reduced sales also likely
to impact upon the companies contributions to charitable support, I see that four
directors of Berkeley Group Holdings plc are predicted to receive payouts worth 
almost £60 million, over the next 18 months. The co-founder and current group managing
director, Tony Pidgley, is due to receive shares worth some £31 million over the
next 18 months. Finance director Rob Perrins will receive approximately £12 million
of equity in the group, and Tony Carey and Greg Fry, two other directors, will receive
shares worth c £9 million and £6 million respectively.

Not such good news for corporate fundraisers, but it could be OK for a few lucky
major donor fundraisers.
