Michael O'Leary's annual bonus questioned by shareholder advisory group

Ryanair group CEO Michael O'Leary

Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary's proposed €458,000 annual bonus has come under fire, as an influential investor advisory firm urged shareholders to oppose the package in a non-binding vote later this month.

Proxy advisor ISS said the pay award for the financial year ended in March "raises concerns" and was hard to justify amid the unprecedented aviation crisis sparked by Covid-19.
