Property firm execs face shareholder rebellion

Hammerson, which owns shopping centres including the Bullring in Birmingham and Brent Cross in London, faces a potential shareholder rebellion this week over multimillion-pound share payouts to executives.

The property company has been criticised by Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS), a shareholder advisory group, which has urged investors to vote against executive pay at Hammerson’s annual meeting in London on Tuesday.
