an overview of the nature and type of the key measures used to take account of these risks, including risks difficult to measure (values need not be disclosed); The nature of the risk management framework associated with remuneration varies from senior executive to senior executive.

(d) Description of the ways in which the ADI seeks to link performance during a performance measurement period with levels of remuneration. Disclosures must include:  
an overview of the main performance metrics for the ADI, top-level business lines and individuals; Senior executives are paid a competitive fixed component of remuneration that reflects their core performance requirements and the expectations associated with their particular position. No senior executive is provided with a yearly incentive payment on the basis of Heritage Finance Holdings's financial performance. Senior executives may be paid a yearly incentive dependent on the individual's performance throughout the year and the duties and responsibilities undertaken. Senior executive performance is measured against four areas, namely culture, individual performance, leadership and strategy.
a discussion of how amounts of individual remuneration are linked to institution-wide and individual performance; and The opportunity for senior executives to be granted a yearly incentive payment is designed to support Heritage Finance Holdings's overall remuneration policy by focussing senior executives on achieving yearly personal performance goals which contribute to sustainable Heritage Finance Holdings growth and member value.

Heritage Finance Holdings does not offer any long term incentive benefits or any remuneration deferral mechanism to senior executives.
a discussion of the measures the ADI will in general implement to adjust remuneration in the event that performance metrics are weak.
