Dear Fellow Shareholder,
Our 2022 performance reflects the strength of our strategic choices, and the relevance of our solutions to our clients as they accelerate their transformation journeys.
We have built a reputation as a trusted long-term partner for our clients and delivered measurable value beyond cost and productivity through our end-to-end, domain, data and process-led solutions, leveraging analytics and digital technologies. Our agility and the dedication of our more than 115,000-person global team has allowed us to rapidly meet the needs of our clients as the world continues to face unprecedented challenges and uncertainties.
We firmly believe that driving value for all of our stakeholders – our clients, employees, shareholders, and communities – is fundamental to our long-term success. As we continue “the relentless pursuit of a world that works better for people,” we are committed to unlocking value that will improve the world for all.
Differentiation in an expanding market
Our strategic focus on a chosen set of industry verticals and services, coupled with the targeted investments we have made in digital, data and analytics, operational excellence, and process expertise as well as domain and functional depth, have allowed us to build the deep experience needed to help our clients navigate an increasingly complex environment.
We continue to see our total addressable market expand, driven by a set of interdependent trends:
an increase in the number of enterprises on a journey to transform their business;
increasing client focus on consolidation, standardization and global delivery with particular focus on cost in order to generate investment dollars for their business;
the continued accelerated movement to the cloud with our unique approach to building solutions;
the exponential growth in leveraging data and real-time analytics; and
increasing demand for great talent that understands new technologies as well as data and analytics.
Responding to these trends, enterprises are revisiting their choices by focusing on a narrower set of strategic technology services partners. This has created new opportunities for us as a partner of choice having the essential domain depth and suite of digital and analytics capabilities to transform clients’ operations end-to-end. As a result, we are seeing many new opportunities with existing clients that want to accelerate transformation journeys, as well as with new clients who are now open to partnerships for the first time in response to the many global challenges.
We believe clients engage with us not only for our demonstrated success in leading complex end-to-end transformations, but for our rich heritage in process and domain depth, our use of Lean and Six Sigma methodologies and our maniacal focus on client relationships, all underpinned with our culture of curiosity, courage, incisiveness, and integrity. This unique combination gives us confidence in our ability to achieve our long-term financial results to drive shareholder value.
Business highlights
During 2022, we redefined our business around two service sets that work together to deliver tangible outcomes for our clients. The first is Data-Tech-AI services, where we design and build solutions using data and modern technologies to help transform our clients’ businesses and operations. The second is Digital Operations services, where we transform our clients’ operations and run them globally to deliver higher levels of end-to-end performance. We believe Genpact is in a highly differentiated position in the marketplace by leveraging the powerful interlinkages between these two growth engines. The more we are engaged in Data-Tech-AI services for clients, the more we find new opportunities to transform and run clients’ operations on an ongoing basis. And the more we grow Digital Operations, the more we win new Data-Tech-AI transformation engagements.

Our results for the year reflect the non-discretionary nature of a majority of our services and the full suite of services we provide our clients to drive cost savings, growth and cash flows, while mitigating risk and improving a variety of outcomes. We saw broad-based growth across all our industry segments, with continued strong momentum across newer growth areas such as Sales & Commercial, Supply Chain Management, Financial Crimes & Risk, and Financial Planning & Analysis.
We also continued to invest in our priority accounts, which represent a portfolio of select clients that are on significant transformation journeys that we believe have great potential to generate above average company growth. The trust and client intimacy we are building with them, across multiple buying centers, allows us to drive value for them and growth for us. During 2022, revenue from our priority accounts grew 15% and represented approximately 60% of total revenue.
Our people
We have always believed that our people represent our greatest competitive advantage. Attracting, building and retaining talent continues to be a top priority for us.
Over the years, we have earned a reputation for being an organization that allows people to build great careers. Our culture of learning fuels our ability to be agile and nimble in serving clients. Powered by our online, on-demand learning platform, Genome, our global teams build critical new skills needed for the future to deliver novel client solutions and outcomes at scale. For the third consecutive year, our global workforce completed over 10 million training hours, deepening their expertise and capabilities in areas such as cloud, digital and AI. This also includes our proprietary data and analytics certification program that is available to all global team members to develop their expertise in generating insights from our vast operating data sets.
During the year, we further evolved our talent management and employee engagement practices to build a more inclusive environment where our employees can thrive. In 2022, we were recognized by Forbes as one of America’s Best Employers for Veterans and acknowledged as an Exemplar of Inclusion in Avtar & Seramount’s Most Inclusive Companies Index.
While we experienced an increase in our talent attrition numbers across the globe in the first half of 2022, attrition has been trending down since June 2022 and is now more aligned with pre-pandemic levels. More importantly, we now measure our employee engagement levels every month across the globe using automated and intelligent chatbots, which continue to indicate a consistently high level of employee engagement driven by our inclusive culture and learning environment.
Financial Performance
We are pleased with our 2022 performance, with revenue growth, adjusted operating income margin and adjusted diluted EPS all coming in at the high-end of our expectations, highlighting the relevance of our Data-Tech-AI Services and Digital Operations Services for our clients.
Our Data-Tech-AI services and Digital Operations Services grew 18% and 6% on a constant currency basis1, respectively, driven by the growing momentum in emerging services, which include Supply Chain and Risk Services.
We often see initial Data-Tech-AI relationships set the stage to expand beyond the original scope with a range of services we offer that are relevant to meet the variety of challenges our clients face today.
Here are some highlights from 2022:

Driving total shareholder return
In 2022, we returned $306 million of capital to shareholders through dividend payments of $92 million and share repurchases of $214 million. Our buybacks during 2022 reduced our net share count by 2.5%.
Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations
ESG is core to our purpose, and serving our stakeholders — our clients, employees, shareholders and the communities in which we operate — is imperative for our long-term success.
We continue our focus on attracting, building and retaining diverse talent. Using data and carefully curated programs, we are making meaningful strides in bridging racial and gender equity and have since expanded to veterans. We are proud of the recognitions we have received in the market for these efforts, having been included in the 2023 Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index for the second year in a row.
We are committed to bettering our planet and driving initiatives to minimize our climate impact by making our operating facilities greener through increased use of renewable energy, continuous improvement in water consumption, and minimization of waste, including the elimination of non-essential single use plastics and recycling of food waste. We expect to announce our net zero targets during 2023 and have submitted our targets for SBTi validation.
We are excited about the role we can play to drive sustainability not only as an individual company but for our clients as well. Given our deep industry knowledge, strength in data and analytics, and familiarity with our clients’ processes, we are in a meaningful position to help them with their ESG journeys.
We are committed to our ESG initiatives and to sharing our progress transparently with our stakeholders. Please refer to the section titled “Sustainability” in this proxy statement for more information.

incorporated herein.

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Pursuant to the corporate governance listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), a director employed by us cannot be deemed to be an “independent director,” and consequently Mr. Tyagarajan is not an independent director. The board has determined that none of the other current directorsdirector nominees has a material relationship with us for purposes of the NYSE corporate governance listing standards and accordingly each is independent under such NYSE standards. In making its independence determinations, the board considered the relationship between our Company and Bain Capital, as affiliates of Bain Capital own approximately 27% of our outstanding common shares, the fact that Messrs. Chandra, Humphrey, Nunnelly and Verdi serve on our board as designees of Bain Capital pursuant to the terms of our shareholder agreement with affiliates of Bain Capital, and the fact that Messrs. Chandra and Humphrey are managing directors of Bain Capital.

DIRECTOR NOMINATION PROCESS

AND DIRECTOR CHARACTERISTICS

In considering whether to recommend any particular candidate for inclusion in the board of directors’ slate of recommended director nominees, the nominating and governance committee applies the criteria set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines. These criteria include the candidate’s integrity, knowledge of our business and industry, experience, diligence, absence of any conflicts of interest and the ability to act in the interests of all shareholders. The committee does not assign specific weights to particular criteria and no particular criterion is a prerequisite for each prospective nominee. We believe that the backgrounds and qualifications of our directors, considered as a group, should provide a composite mix of experience, knowledge and abilities that will allow the board of directors to fulfill its responsibilities. We
While we do not have a formal or informal diversity policy for board membership, but the nominating and governance committee is committed to considering diversity in accordance with its charter.charter, and it seeks out candidates with diverse experience and perspectives, including diversity with respect to gender, age, race, ethnicity, geography, and areas of expertise. The nominating and governance committee and the board of directors believe that considering diversity is consistent with the goal of creating a board of directors that best serves the needs of the Company and the interests of its shareholders, and it is one of the many factors that they consider when identifying individuals for board membership. When considering candidates as potential board members, the board of directors and the nominating and governance committee evaluate each candidate’s ability to contribute to the diversity of the board.
The nominating and governance committee and the board of directors also believe that diversity with respect to tenure is important to balance the fresh perspectives brought by newer directors with the deep institutional knowledge and experience of our longer tenured directors. Our director nominees have a median tenure of seven years. Our shortest-serving director nominee has served on our board for two years, and our longest-serving director nominee has served on our board for 18 years. Since 2019, we have added four new directors to our board of directors, replacing six directors who completed their impactful tenures on our board.

MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The board of directors has responsibility for establishing broad corporate policies and reviewing our overall performance rather than day-to-day operations. The board of directors’ primary responsibility is to oversee the management of Genpact and, in so doing, serve the best interests of the Company. Subject to the recommendations of the compensation committee and the nominating and governance committee, respectively, the board of directors selects, evaluates and provides for the succession of executive officers, and the board of directors nominates for election at annual general shareholder meetings individuals to serve as directors of Genpact and elects individuals to fill any vacancies on the board of directors to the extent not filled by shareholders in general meetings. ItThe board of directors reviews and approves corporate objectives and strategies, and evaluates significant policies and proposed major commitments of corporate resources. Management keeps the directors informed of Company activity through presentations at board of directors and committee meetings.

The board of directors met, in person or telephonically, 5ten times in fiscal 2015.2022. During fiscal 2015, each2022, all of our directors attended 75% or moreat least 84%, and an average of 89%, of the total number of meetings of the board of directors and the committees of which such director was a member during the period of time he or she served on such committee. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines set forth our policy that directors are expected to attend annual general meetings of shareholders. All of our directors serving in such capacity at the time of the 2015 annual meeting attended the 20152022 annual meeting.

COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The board of directors has standing audit, compensation and nominating and governance committees. Each committee has a charter that has been approved by the board of directors. Each committee must review the appropriateness of its charter and perform a self-evaluation at least annually. Mr. Tyagarajan is the only director who is an employee of Genpact, and he does not participate in any meeting, or portions of any meeting, at which his compensation or performance is evaluated. All members of all committees are non-employee directors and the board of directors has determined that all of the members of our three standing committees are independent as defined under the rules of the NYSE, and, in the case of all members of the audit committee, the independence requirements contemplated by Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act.

Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

BOARD LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE AND ROLE IN RISK OVERSIGHT

The positions of chairmanChair of the board of directors and Chief Executive OfficerCEO have historically been separated at Genpact. Keeping these positions separate allows our Chief Executive OfficerCEO to focus on our day-to-day business, while allowing the chairmanChair of the board of directors to lead the board in its exercise of business judgment to promote the long-term interests of our shareholders by providing strategic direction and overseeing management. The Boardboard of directors believes that keeping these positions separate is the appropriate leadership structure for us at this time.

ANNUAL BOARD, COMMITTEE AND INDIVIDUAL DIRECTOR EVALUATION PROCESS
As set forth in its charter, the nominating and governance committee oversees the board, committee and individual director evaluation process. Annually, the nominating and governance committee determines the appropriate form of evaluation and considers the design of the process to ensure it is both meaningful and effective.
From time to time, the board of directors engages an independent third party with experience in board evaluations and organizational effectiveness to lead the board evaluation. The last time the board engaged a third party to lead the board evaluation process was in 2019. In 2022, the board led its own self-evaluation process, which included written evaluations of the board as a whole and individual directors and was led by the Chair of the nominating and governance committee. The process also included one-on-one interviews between the Chair of the nominating and governance committee and each other member of the board. The evaluation process engaged our directors on a wide range of topics, including board and committee structure, board dynamics and operations, and board, committee and individual director effectiveness and performance. Following the conclusion of the evaluation process, the board reviewed and discussed the evaluation results.
The results of the 2022 evaluation process support the board’s belief that the board and its committees are operating effectively.
RISK OVERSIGHT

As more fully described below, the audit committee assists the board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to risk management in the areas of data privacy, financial reporting, cybersecurity, internal controls and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, and, in accordance with NYSE requirements, discusses policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management.

OVERSIGHT OF ESG STRATEGY AND CYBERSECURITY AND DATA PRIVACY RISKS
As part of our board’s strategic and risk oversight, the board oversees our ESG strategies, including our sustainability priorities and human capital management practices and related risks. Throughout the year, the board receives periodic reports from management and the board’s committees on our ESG initiatives, overall sustainability strategy and the ESG reporting frameworks we use to track our progress. In 2022, our board delegated ESG oversight responsibility to the nominating and governance committee. Accordingly, the nominating and governance committee now oversees our overall ESG performance, disclosure, strategies, goals and objectives and monitors ESG risks and opportunities on behalf of the board. The board will also continue to monitor and receive periodic reports from the nominating and governance committee and management on these and other ESG matters, including with respect to human capital matters such as pay equity, inclusion and diversity, company culture and related risks.

DirectorDirector Compensation

OVERVIEW

The compensation committee, which is comprised solely of independent directors, reviews and approves the compensation arrangements for our directors. The componentscommittee reviews director compensation every other year.
In connection with its 2021 review of our 2015director compensation, the compensation committee considered the results of an independent analysis on director compensation prepared by FW Cook, an independent, external compensation consulting firm. As part of this analysis, FW Cook reviewed non-employee director compensation are set forthtrends and data from companies comprising the same executive compensation peer group used by the compensation committee in connection with its review of CEO compensation in 2021. After considering the information contained in the FW Cook report, the compensation committee approved the following changes to our director compensation program effective January 1, 2022 to align director compensation levels with the projected market median range:
Increased the committee chair retainers for the audit, compensation and nominating and governance committees by $5,000 annually; and
Increased the value of the annual restricted share unit (“RSU”) grant to non-employee directors from $175,000 to $200,000.
The compensation committee believes that leaving the annual base cash retainer unchanged and allocating the total amount of the base director compensation increase to the annual RSU grant is appropriate because it more closely aligns our directors with our shareholders’ interests by rewarding directors for long-term shareholder value creation, and it also mirrors the emphasis in our executive compensation program on weighting equity more heavily than cash in setting total compensation targets. All other features of our director compensation program were left unchanged.
ELEMENTS OF 2022 DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Under our director compensation program, our non-employee directors received an annual retainer with a total value of $270,000, divided between cash and equity — in the form of an RSU grant — as depicted below.

Adjusted income from operations margin is a non-GAAP financial measure used by our management for reporting, budgeting and decision-making purposes. Adjusted income from operations margin excludes certain recurring costs, namely stock-based compensation and amortization of acquired intangibles and, since April 2016, impairment of acquired intangibles. See Exhibit 1 to this Proxy Statement for a reconciliation of adjusted income from operations margin to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

This is the peer group we use for purposes of Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K, consisting of the six companies that we believe are our closest reporting issuer competitors: Accenture plc, Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp., ExlService Holdings, Inc., Infosys Technologies Limited, Wipro Technologies Limited, and WNS (Holdings) Limited. The returns of the component entities of our peer group index are weighted according to the market capitalization of each company as of the end of each period for which a return is presented. The returns assume that $100 was invested on December 31, 2021 and that all dividends were reinvested.
Throughout 2022 there was significant economic and geopolitical uncertainty in many markets around the world, including the markets in which we and our clients operate. Despite these challenges, our 2022 financial results reflect solid performance across all of our industry segments, highlighting the relevance of our Data-Tech-AI and Digital Operations services for our clients. Overall, while our performance against the financial metrics in our 2022 performance-based compensation plans was strong and we achieved above-target performance under our 2022 performance share awards, bonus payouts to our named executive officers were lower than target, reflecting the strength of the plan design, leading to a lower-than-target Company Multiplier, as well as the rigor of the goals in our named executive officers’ 2022 individual scorecards.
We believe that our targeted investmentspay-for-performance program, which incentivizes higher-than-target growth in client-facing teamsrevenues, adjusted operating income, net bookings and digitalrenewal bookings while requiring a threshold level of adjusted operating income margin, combined with the strength and analytics capabilities are resonating in the marketplace. Our Lean DigitalSM approach brings together design thinking methods, digital process-centric technologies, and Lean principles along with domain expertise, which differentiatesresilience of our value proposition and helps us win complex, transformational engagements.

Our 2015 financial results include:

·

Revenues of $2.46 billion, up 8% from $2.28 billion in 2014.

·

Revenues from our Global Clients (clients other than the General Electric Company, or GE) of $2.0 billion, up 10% from 2014.

·

New bookings of $2.59 billion, up 20% from $2.16 billion in 2014.

·

Net income attributable to Genpact Limited shareholders of $240 million.

·

Adjusted income from operations of $377.2 million, up 10% from 2014.

·

Adjusted income from operations margin of 15.3%.

·

Cash from operations of $327 million, up 20% from $272 million in 2014.

Our strong 2015 results were accompanied by healthy shareholder returns. Our total shareholder return for the year ended December 31, 2015 (measuredbusiness model as the percentage change in our share price during the year) was 32%. We believe that thewell as a continued focus ofon our management team in advancing our long-term growth strategy and our pay-for-performance philosophystrategic goals, contributed to our operational and financial achievements during 2015 and that the targeted investments for growth that we began in 2014 and continue to make will increase total shareholder return in future years.

Pay for Performance Philosophy

The core objective of our executive officer compensation program is to align pay and performance. The compensation of our named executive officers for 2015 reflects both our 2015 performance and our commitment to providing executive compensation opportunities that are linked to Company performance and shareholder value creation. We believe that as an employee’s level of responsibility increases, so should the proportion of total compensation opportunity that is structured in variable, performance-based awards. Accordingly, a significant portion of the total compensation opportunity provided to our named executive officers is tied directly to performance achievement. Approximately 65% of the total compensation paid to our CEO in 2015 was performance-based. Our pay-for-performance program helps ensure that the financial interests of our executive officers are aligned with those of our shareholders.

Our long-term incentive program has included performance share awards since 2010. These awards vest, if at all, based on attainment of specified financial performance metrics for a one-year performance period and continued service through a three-year vesting period. The financial metrics for the performance shares granted to our executive officers in 2015 were revenues, new bookings, adjusted income from operations and adjusted income from operations margin for fiscal 2015, and the targets were set in the first quarter of 2015 based on expected performance for fiscal 2015. We added new bookings as a metric for the performance shares beginning with the 2014 awards because we believe it is an underlying driver of long term revenue growth and, together with revenues, adjusted income from operations and adjusted income from operations margin, supports long-term profitable growth.

Since 2014, our executive officers and other members of our senior management have participated in a performance-based annual cash bonus program, which is described below under the heading “Annual Cash Bonus.”  Under our annual cash bonus program:

·

all of our executive officers have target bonuses equal to a designated percentage of base salary. The 2015 target bonus for our CEO was 190% of his base salary and the target bonus for our other named executive officers ranged between 50% and 100% of base salary, which we believe is in line with market practice. The compensation committee determined that our CEO’s 2015 target bonus as a percentage of his base salary should be higher than the range applicable to our other executive officers due to the scope of his role, greater accountability for delivery of results, and the committee’s view that a materially higher percentage of at-risk cash pay was appropriate and in line with market practice;

2022.

·

a bonus pool was established for the year equal to the aggregate target bonuses for eligible executives, other than the CEO. The bonus pool was to be funded only if we achieved adjusted income from operations above a threshold level; and

·

the individual bonus payments to our executive officers and other eligible employees are based on performance as measured against a scorecard established for each such executive or eligible employee at the beginning of the year. The scorecards include measurable Company or business unit financial performance metrics and individual non-financial performance objectives specific to an executive’s role with established threshold performance levels that the Company or business unit and the executive must attain to receive payment. The financial metrics account for at least 60% of the outcome for each named executive officer.

Executive Compensation Practices

We strive to maintain sound governance standards and compensation practices by continually monitoring the evolution of best practices. As in prior years, we incorporated many best practices into our 2015 compensation programs, including the following:

What we do

ü   Align our executive pay with performance

üInclude a “clawback” provision in our performance share awards

ü   Make payouts under our bonus plan only if threshold Company performance is met

ü   Set challenging performance objectives for our performance share awards and annual bonus

ü   Maintain meaningful equity ownership policy for the CEO (six times base salary)

ü   Regularly review the relationship between CEO compensation and Company performance

ü   Include caps on individual payouts in short- and long-term incentive plans

ü  Maintain an independent compensation committee

ü   Hold an annual “say-on-pay” advisory vote

ü   Prohibit hedging and pledging of Company common shares

ü   Regularly evaluate our share utilization by reviewing the dilutive impact of equity awards and shares awarded as a percentage of our outstanding shares

ü   Mitigate the potentially dilutive effect of equity awards through our share repurchase program

What we don’t do

Î   Offer contracts with multi-year guaranteed salary or bonus increases

Î   Provide guaranteed retirement benefits or non-qualified deferred compensation plans

Î   Provide tax gross-ups (except with respect to the reimbursement of relocation expenses)

Î   Provide excessive perquisites

Î   Time the release of material non-public information to affect the value of executive compensation

Î   Allow short sales or purchases of equity derivatives of our common shares by officers or directors

Compensation Objectives

The primary objectives of our compensation program for our executives, including our named executive officers, are to attract, motivate and retain highly talented individuals who are committed to our core values of leadership, performance, passion, innovation, teamwork, integritycourage, curiosity, incisiveness and respect.integrity. Our compensation program is designed to incentivize and reward the achievement of our annual, long-term and strategic goals, such as growing revenues, improving operating margins and deepening client relationships and managing employee attrition levels.relationships. It is also designed to align the interests of our executives, including our named executive officers, with those of our shareholders by rewarding performance that exceeds our target goals, with the ultimate objective of increasing shareholder value.

Currently, our

Our compensation committee is responsible for reviewingoverseeing the overall goals and objectives of our executive compensation programs, as well as our compensation plans and making any changes to such goals, objectives and plans. Ourprograms. The compensation committee bases our executive compensation programs on the same objectives that guide us in establishingadministering the compensation programs for all of our compensation programs:

·

Compensation is based on the individual’s level of job responsibility.

·

Compensation reflects the value of the job in the marketplace. A large part of our operations are based in developing economies where there is significant competition for locally-based top executive talent.

·

Compensation reflects the value of the job in the marketplace.

Compensation programs are designed to incentivize and reward performance, both on an individual and Company basis.
Our compensation committee considers risk when developing our compensation program and believes that the design of our current compensation program does not encourage excessive or inappropriate risk taking. Our base salaries provide competitive fixed compensation. Under theour annual cash bonus program, the target bonusbonuses for theour named executive officers rangesrange from 50%100% to 190%158% of their base salary, with a maximum bonus potential set at 300% of the target bonussalaries, and bonuses are payable based on attainment of multiple financial and non-financial short-term performance goals. We believe this structure, which is based on a number of different performance measures together with a meaningful cap on the potential payout, mitigates any tendency for an executive to focusdeters executives from focusing exclusively on the specific financial metrics that might encourage excessive short-term risk taking.

Our named executive officers are also granted performance share awards tied to the attainment of a number ofmultiple performance goals over the fiscal year and continued service over a three-year period.  The performance goals under each award are based on the target approved by the Board and have been determined by the compensation committee to be challenging but attainable without taking excessive risk. We believe that the three-year service vesting requirement under these awards encourages the recipients to focus on sustaining the Company’s long-term performance. Our named executive officers also periodically receive option grants, which vest over a five-year period, and we grant restricted share units from time to time as sign-on grants. The value of our options and restricted share unit awards is tied to sustained long-term appreciation of our share price, which we believe mitigates excessive short-term risk taking. For 2023, in part in response to shareholder feedback we have received on our compensation practices, our compensation committee has approved changes to our long-term incentive compensation program. See the section titled “2022 Shareholder Feedback and Responsiveness” below for more information about these changes.

DON’T DO

Executive Compensation Practices
We strive to maintain sound governance standards and compensation practices by continually monitoring the evolution of “best practices.” As in prior years, we incorporated many best practices into our 2022 compensation programs, including the following:
Align our executive pay with performance
Include a “clawback” provision in our performance share awards
Make payouts under our executive bonus plan only if threshold Company performance is met
Set challenging performance objectives for our performance share awards and annual bonus
Maintain a meaningful equity ownership policy for the CEO (6x base salary) and other NEOs (1x base salary)
Regularly review the relationship between CEO compensation and Company performance
Include caps on individual payouts in short- and long-term incentive plans
Maintain an independent compensation committee
Hold an annual “say-on-pay” advisory vote
Prohibit hedging and pledging of Company common shares
Retain an independent compensation consultant
Place a substantial majority of executive pay at risk
Regularly evaluate our share utilization and the dilutive impact of equity awards
Mitigate the potentially dilutive effect of equity awards through our share repurchase program
Include restrictive covenants in equity award agreements, with a “clawback” of equity in certain circumstances
Maintain a three-year cliff service vesting schedule for annual performance share awards




Offer contracts with multi-year guaranteed salary or bonus increases
Provide guaranteed retirement benefits or contribute to non-qualified deferred compensation plans
Provide tax gross-ups (except with respect to the reimbursement of relocation expenses)
Provide excessive perquisites
Grant equity awards with “single-trigger” change of control provisions
Pay dividends or dividend equivalents on unvested equity awards
Reprice or exchange underwater options without shareholder approval
Maintain special retirement plans exclusively for executive officers
Time the release of material non-public information to affect the value of executive compensation
Allow short sales or purchases of equity derivatives of our common shares by officers or directors

Pay for Performance Philosophy
The core objective of our executive officer compensation program is to align pay and performance. We believe that as an employee’s level of responsibility increases, so should the proportion of total compensation opportunity that is structured in the form of long-term incentive opportunities. The compensation of our named executive officers for 2022 reflects both our 2022 performance and our commitment to providing executive compensation opportunities that are linked to Company performance, including progress on long-term strategic goals and shareholder value creation.
The material components of our compensation are (i) a fixed base salary and (ii) variable, performance-based compensation comprised of (A) short-term incentive compensation under our performance-based annual cash bonus program and (B) long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity awards, which have historically been granted as performance share awards on an annual basis along with periodic option awards. Our incentive plans are predominantly based on diverse financial metrics that focus on long-term strategic priorities. Payouts to our executives vary significantly year to year based on performance against challenging targets.
The charts below reflect the target pay mix between fixed and variable compensation components based on target compensation for our NEOs during fiscal year 2022, which reflects our pay-for-performance philosophy. In 2022, approximately 91% of our CEO’s total target annualized compensation of $9,374,000 was performance-based and approximately 81% (on average) of the total target compensation of our other named executive officers was performance-based. In the charts below, performance-based compensation includes short-term incentives in the form of our annual cash bonus plan and long-term incentives in the form of both performance share and option awards. For our CEO, target compensation includes the annualized grant-date value of the option award granted to him in 2018.

Shareholder Engagement
We welcome and value the views and insights of our shareholders. We have ongoing communications with our shareholders in the normal course of business and evaluate all shareholder feedback. Leading up to and following our 2022 annual meeting, at which 96% of the shares voted on our say-on-pay proposal were voted in favor of our 2021 executive compensation practices, we conducted extensive shareholder outreach to better understand our shareholders’ perspectives on our compensation practices and to solicit their feedback. In the second quarter of 2022, we contacted shareholders owning more than 70% of our outstanding shares, including our top 19 shareholders, and we had discussions with shareholders representing approximately 15% of our total shares then outstanding. The remaining shareholders from whom we solicited feedback in 2022 either declined to meet or did not respond to our inquiries.
The meetings with these shareholders were typically attended by our Chief Financial Officer, our Chief Legal Officer and our Head of Investor Relations. This effort supplemented the ongoing communications and meetings we hold with our investors throughout the year and focused on the Company’s compensation practices and philosophy, the alignment of our compensation program with our strategic direction and our ESG practices and philosophy.
In addition, in June 2022, we hosted our Investor and Analyst Day in New York City at which our investors had an opportunity to hear directly from our CEO and other members of our leadership team about our overall strategy, including our perspectives on our market, drivers of our growth and profitability and our capital allocation and financial plans.

2022 Shareholder Feedback and Responsiveness
Based on the feedback we received from our shareholders, in 2022 our compensation committee evaluated several potential changes to our compensation practices. The table below highlights certain compensation practices that were evaluated and the compensation committee’s responses to the shareholder feedback, including actions that were taken as a result, where applicable.
COMPENSATION
PRACTICES
OUR RESPONSE/ACTIONS WE TOOK
Use of time-based options in long-term incentive compensation
Historically, our compensation committee has granted options to our NEOs, as it did for our NEOs other than Messrs. Tyagarajan and Weiner in 2022. Several of our shareholders suggested that we consider eliminating time-based option grants, particularly multi-year option grants, from our long-term incentive compensation. While the compensation committee believes that multi-year option grants have focused our NEOs on share price appreciation, aligned their interests with shareholders and had greater retention value than other equity vehicles, the compensation committee considered the feedback received from shareholders and determined that going forward, including for 2023, we will provide annual grants of RSUs in lieu of periodic grants of options.
Inclusion of TSR or relative TSR metric in performance compensation program
Several of our shareholders suggested that we consider including a TSR or relative TSR metric in our performance-based compensation. Following discussions with shareholders and with input from FW Cook, an independent compensation consulting firm, our compensation committee evaluated several design alternatives for our performance share awards that incorporated a TSR or relative TSR performance metric and decided to include a relative TSR component in the 2023 performance share awards.
One-year performance period for performance share awards
Several of our shareholders suggested that we consider increasing the length of the performance period for our performance share awards. While the compensation committee believes there are a number of benefits to a one-year performance period combined with a three-year service period, the compensation committee determined that it will utilize a three-year performance period for performance share awards beginning with the 2023 performance share awards.
Our Process

Our compensation committee is responsible for reviewing the performance and potential of each of our executives,executive officers, including our named executive officers, approving the compensation level of each of our executives,executive officers, establishing criteria for granting equity awards to our executivesexecutive officers and other employees, and approving such grants.

The compensation committee typically reviews each component of compensation at least every 1512 months with the goal of allocating compensation between cash and non-cash compensation and between long-termshort- and currently paid outlong-term compensation, and combining the compensation elements for each executive in a manner we believe best fulfills the objectives of our compensation program.

The compensation committee has not adopted a policy for the allocation of compensation between cash and non-cash components or between short-term and long-term components, nor has the compensation committee adopted a pre-established ratio between the CEO’s compensation and that of the other named executive officers. Rather, the compensation committee, which includes experienced directors who servehave served as members of the boards and compensation committees of other public companies, works closely with our CEO, discussing with him the Company’s overall performance, the CEO’s own performance and his evaluation of and compensation recommendations for the other named executive officers.

See the section titled “2022 Target Pay Mix and Pay Positioning” below for further details.

The compensation committee then utilizes its judgment and experience in making all compensation determinations. The compensation committee’s determination of compensation levels is based upon what the members of the committee deem appropriate, considering information such as the factors listed above, as well as input from our CEO, shareholder feedback, publicly available information on compensation practices in our industry, and depending on the year, information and advice provided by an independent compensation consultant.

Base salaries and target annual bonuses for 2022 were reviewed at the end of 2021 and adjustments were approved by the compensation committee for certain of our named executive officers. Base salary and target bonus increases approved at the end of 2021 were made effective January 1, 2022.
The performance goals for our 2022 annual bonus plan and the 2022 performance share awards were approved by the compensation committee in early 2022 based on expected financial performance for the full year 2022 and reflected the Company’s

strategic and operational short- and long-term priorities. The compensation committee determined at that time that the targets under our 2022 incentive compensation plans were challenging to achieve but attainable without taking excessive risk, and the targets were consistent with the financial outlook we disclosed at the beginning of 2022.
Role of CEO in Compensation Decisions

In late 2021, the CEO provided the compensation committee recommendations on adjustments to the base salaries and target bonuses of the other named executive officers for 2022 as well as grants of long-term incentive awards. After the end of the 20152022 fiscal year, the compensation committee and the CEO discussed our business performance, his performance and his evaluation of the level of achievement of the individual objectives set forth in the 2022 bonus scorecards of the other named executive officers and certain other members of senior management. The CEO also provides recommendations on periodic adjustments to the base salaries of the other named executive officers. The compensation committee took into consideration the CEO’s recommendations but makesmade the final decisions on compensation as it deemsdeemed appropriate. The compensation committee, without the CEO present, determined the CEO’s 20152022 compensation.

Role of Consultants and Advisors in Compensation Decisions

The compensation committee has the authority to retain and terminate an independent third-party compensation consultant and to obtain independent advice and assistance from internal and external legal, accounting and other advisors. The compensation committee has periodically engaged an independent compensation consultant that reports directly tomeets with the compensation committee and advises the compensation committee with respect toon compensation trends and best practices, plan design, and the reasonablenesscompetitiveness of individual compensation awards.

During 2015, the compensation committee reviewed and considered market data on compensation practices in our industry. CEO compensation.

With respect to the CEO, the compensation committee evaluated each elementreviews a market study of our CEO’sCEO compensation based onat least once every two years. In early 2022, the compensation committee reviewed a report prepared by F.W.FW Cook, an independent compensation consulting firm, setting forth FW Cook’s evaluation and recommendations regarding CEO compensation for management2022 using 2021 proxy data (the “2022 Report”). The peer group used by FW Cook in the 2022 Report was based on the peer group used by Institutional Shareholder Services (“ISS”) in its 2021 proxy analysis and determined that no change to his overallbenchmark policy voting recommendation report for the Company. As of December 31, 2021, our revenues ranked at the 45th percentile and our market capitalization ranked near the median of the peer group companies used in the ISS report.

This review provided valuable background information and confirmed that our executive officer pay (as determined by the compensation committee) was aligned with the market.

TheIn cases where the peer company data on comparable management positions was inadequate or insufficient, Aon Hewitt also provided target compensation data from its published surveys for positions comparable to those of our executive officers (in terms of scope of responsibility).

Different subsets of the peer group were used for different named executive officers depending on the officer’s position and geographic location. Differences in revenue size and market capitalization between us and companies in the peer group were accounted for by comparing roles with a similar scope of responsibility.
2022 Target Pay Mix and Pay Positioning
The compensation committee annually reviews the total direct compensation and pay mix for the CEO and each other named executive officer. In determining total compensation opportunities and the pay mix for our executives, the compensation committee considers many factors, including (i) our pay for performance compensation philosophy; (ii) competitive market data to provide a frame of reference for how our peer group companies set compensation opportunities; (iii) the nature and scope of the executive’s role at the Company; (iv) the individual’s performance, contributions to the Company and impact to shareholder value; and (v) the retention value of the compensation.
While we do not have any pre-established allocation of the target pay mix, the compensation committee’s overall intent is to emphasize the variable, performance-based components of pay and, accordingly, we allocate a significant percentage of targeted total compensation in the form of long-term incentives and our annual performance-based bonus plan, payouts under both of which fluctuate with Company performance. Our long-term incentives for 2022 were in the form of performance share awards and options, which the compensation committee believes also incentivize long-term Company performance since the value of the options is directly tied to the value of the underlying shares.
CEO Compensation Mix
Our CEO’s compensation is aligned with our performance and our shareholders’ interests. As indicated in the chart on page 28, 91% of our CEO’s target annualized total direct compensation for 2022 was based on achievement of annual financial goals and share price performance and thus strongly linked to Company results. Only 9% of our CEO’s 2022 target compensation was in the form of fixed pay. Against a backdrop of consistent high performance over his tenure, and based on the peer benchmarking information included in the 2022 FW Cook report on CEO compensation – which showed that for 2021 our CEO’s base salary was close to the 25th percentile and his target bonus was in the range of median compared to the peer group – the compensation committee made the following decisions regarding the CEO’s target annualized compensation for 2022:
His base salary was increased from $800,000 to $824,000.
His annual target bonus opportunity of $1,300,000 was left unchanged.
He was granted a performance share award covering shares having a value of $3.75 million (the same as the target value of his performance share award in 2021). Together with the annualized target value of the option granted to him in 2018, the annualized target value of his long-term incentive awards for 2022 was $7.25 million, unchanged from 2021.
Accordingly, our CEO’s total target annualized direct compensation for 2022 was set at $9,374,000, an increase of less than 1% compared to $9,350,000 for 2021. This total target annualized direct compensation positions Mr. Tyagarajan’s 2022 compensation between the median and the 75th percentile relative to the peer group (based on the 2021 proxy data included in the 2022 Report), reflecting Mr. Tyagarajan’s exceptional performance as well as his long and successful tenure as our CEO.

TABLE OF CONTENTSConsideration

| Executive Officer Compensation
In addition, in targeting our CEO’s total direct compensation competitively compared to the peer group, the compensation committee considered that our CEO’s pay mix reflects a stronger performance orientation (with 91% performance-based) compared to the total direct compensation for CEOs in the 2021 peer group. We believe the structure of Prior Shareholder Advisoryhis long-term incentive compensation, which includes the 2018 multi-year option grant and annual performance share awards, focuses our CEO on managing the business for the long term and reinforces the link between his earning opportunity and the long-term growth of the Company and total shareholder return.
Other NEO Compensation Mix
For our other named executive officers, we continued to maintain a compensation structure with a significant portion of total compensation at risk based on Company and share price performance. As indicated on the chart on page 28, approximately 81% (on average) of the 2022 total target direct compensation for our other named executive officers was performance-based.
In 2022, in accordance with our overall compensation philosophy, we targeted our other named executive officers’ base salaries between the 25th percentile and median and total annual cash compensation (base plus target bonus) in the range of median compared to the peer and survey groups used by the compensation committee in setting 2022 compensation. The annual cash compensation targets for certain named executive officers were higher than that range based on their role and position. The compensation committee believes that, similar to our CEO, the total target direct compensation for our other NEOs is appropriate because the total pay package (with 81% at risk on average) has a stronger performance orientation compared to the total direct compensation for comparable positions in the peer and survey groups. Similar to our CEO, our other NEOs’ 2022 long-term incentives consist of periodic grants of options, which require appreciation in our share price over time for our NEOs to realize any value, and annual performance share awards.

Additionally, in accordance with the preference expressed by many of our shareholders in our meetings with them, in May 2015 we decided to hold an annual advisory “say-on-pay” vote.

We continue not to disclose all of the performance targets we use for our cash and equity incentive compensation plans because we believe this information is competitively sensitive.  Our compensation committee has determined that the targets under our incentive compensation plans are challenging to achieve, and the targets are consistent with the financial outlook we disclose at the beginning of each year.

Annual Cash Bonus

Annual cash bonuses are designed to provide rewards toreward our executives, including our named executive officers, for Company performance and theirour executives’ individual performance during the most recent year. We believe that the immediacy of these cash bonuses, in contrast to our equity grants, which vest over a period of time, provides a significant incentive to our executives towards achievingto achieve their respective individual objectives, our Company objectives and our overall long termlong-term and strategic goals, such as client satisfaction, growing revenues and bookings, including client renewals, improving operating margins, managing employee attrition levels and making disciplined investments in our targeted verticals, service lines and geographies.investments. Our cash bonuses are an important motivating factor for our executives, in addition to being a significant factor in attracting and retaining our executives.

Since 2014, when our compensation committee adopted a scorecard-based bonus program, annual

Annual bonuses under our cash bonus plan have beenare directly linked to Company, business unit and individual performance. Annual bonuses to our executives are payable only if threshold performance is attained. As in prior years, for 2022 the compensation committee established a bonus pool which is funded based on the level of attainment of Company performance metrics (subject to a threshold level of performance). The compensation committee also established target bonuses for each NEO, with the actual bonus payable based on attainment of individual, Company and business unit goals and adjusted based on the funding of the bonus pool.

Target Bonuses

Under our annual cash bonus plan, each of our named executive officers is eligible for a target bonus specified as a percentage of his or her base salary. For 2015, the2022, Mr. Tyagarajan’s target bonus for Mr. Tyagarajan was 190%approximately 158% of his base salary and the target bonuses for theour other named executive officers ranged between 50 andofficers’ target bonuses were 100% of their base salary.

The compensation committee also took into consideration the requirements under theireach of our named executive officer’s employment agreements in setting their bonus targets. See “—Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table and GrantGrants of Plan-Based Awards Table—Employment Agreements with Named Executive Officers.”

Bonus Pool Based on Profitability

As part of our annual cash bonus plan, at

At the beginning of the year2022, the compensation committee established a target bonus pool for 20152022 equal to the aggregate target bonuses for all of the senior vice presidents in the Company, including all of the named executive officers other than the CEO. The bonus pool was to be funded only ifbased on the Company achieved 2015Company’s 2022 adjusted income from operations above a threshold amount.(“AOI”), revenue and employee engagement score performance, weighted 45%, 45% and 10%, respectively. The actual bonus pool can rangefunding was subject to an additional condition that if the Company's AOI margin for 2022 was lower than a specified amount, the Compensation Committee could reduce the bonus pool funding, including to zero, to allow the Company to achieve a specified AOI margin for 2022.
For 2022, the employee engagement metric was the Company’s employee engagement score for 2022, which is calculated by multiplying the Company’s overall employee response rate on its “Amber” platform, an AI-based tool that collects employee feedback and assesses employee sentiment, by the percentage of the Company’s Amber responses that were positive for 2022. For the purposes of the 2022 bonus plan, a positive response is defined as either a four or five rating on a scale of five in response to a question in Amber that asks each employee to rate their employee experience over the course of their tenure with the Company. This change to the employee engagement metric for 2022 reflects our observation that higher rates of attrition are observed among employees who do not engage with the Amber platform and that therefore the employee response rate is as important as the positive response score in assessing employee engagement and improving employee retention.
The potential bonus pool ranged from 0% to 200% of target (with performance between the established levels determined on a straight-line basis), depending on the level of adjusted income from operationsachievement of the AOI, revenue and employee engagement score goals and whether the threshold for each metric was met. Under the 2022 plan, if the Company’s AOI margin for 2022 was below a certain level, then regardless of the level of achievement of the AOI, revenue or employee engagement score goals, the compensation committee retained the discretion to reduce the bonus pool by any amount the committee determined (including to zero) to increase the Company’s AOI margin up to a specified amount. As a result, the full bonus pool was at risk.
If the Company achieved the threshold level of at least one of the three metrics, then the bonus pool would be funded based solely on the level of attainment of the metric(s) achieved at the threshold level. The aggregate level of attainment of the goals (based on the weighting of each goal) is met.referred to as the “Company Multiplier.”

For 2022, we achieved higher-than-target performance on the revenue and employee engagement score goals and lower-than-target but higher-than-threshold performance on the AOI goal. Given the lower-than-target performance on the AOI goal, the compensation committee exercised its discretion to reduce the payout under the bonus pool, resulting in a Company Multiplier of approximately 93%.
See “Executive Officer Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis—2022 Key Financial Highlights” for information regarding how our calculation of AOI differs from United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) net income, as well as Exhibit 1 to this Proxy Statement for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.
Bonus Scorecards

In an effort to further link our executive officer compensation to measurable Company and individual performance, the actual bonus payable to each of our named executive officers is determined based on attainment of pre-established individual, Company and business unit performance targets for each officer.officer subject to the maximum bonus potential based on the level of AOI, revenue and employee engagement scores. We utilize a scorecard methodology whichthat incorporates multiple financial and non-financial strategic performance indicators for each officer, with the financial performance metrics accounting for at least 60% of the result.

Examples of non-financial, strategic performance indicators include longer term execution of strategic plans, such as hiring goals and development of new client offerings.CEO establishes the scorecards for the other executive officers. At the time of establishing the individual scorecards, the compensation committee considered the level of difficulty associated with attainment of each goalgoals in the scorecard andscorecards were determined that the target level for each such goal wasto be challenging. We believe that encouraging our named executive officers, as well as other employees with management responsibility, to focus on a variety of performance objectives that are important for creating shareholder value reduces incentives to take excessive risk with respect to any single objective.

In no circumstance can the total of the bonus payouts under the plan exceed the funded pool. Even if each average scorecard result is over 100%, the overall bonus pool is not expanded and instead the individual payouts are adjusted downwards. The 2015 adjusted Company multiplier was 85%.

Equity-Based Compensation

Our equity-based compensation program is designed to attract and retain highly qualified individuals, given that competition for talent is high in our industry, and to align the long-term interests of our executives with those of our shareholders. Equity-based compensation is subject to multi-year vesting requirements, which requirerequires the continued service of our executives in order for them to realize gains.

The annual equity award component of our executive officer compensation is generally comprised primarily of performance share awards. In 2015,Under the performance share awards, represented between approximately 40%each officer is eligible to receive shares based on the Company’s level of attainment of specified performance goals over a one-year performance period and 60%such officer’s continued service through the end of total compensation for the named executive officers other than the CEO.a three-year service vesting period. Performance share awards require that we attain at least the minimum threshold levels of performance to receive any payment under the award. Accordingly, our executive officers realize no pay from their awards unless we perform. We have been granting performance shares since 2010, and theThe compensation committee believes that including performance shares as part of Genpact’s equity-based compensation program strengthens focus on the Company’s operatingfinancial performance and shareholder value creation. TheyThe performance share awards have also been an effective tool for retention of key employees.
We have also historically periodically granted options to our executive officers as an additional long-term incentive and for retention purposes. Our compensation committee believes that options, which are valuable only if the stock price increases after the grant date, align with the specific goal of increasing shareholder value. Options remain a powerful tool for incentivizing long-term Company performance and promoting shareholder value creation, particularly when combined with annual performance share awards, which focus our executives on achieving challenging, but shorter-term objectives.
From time to time, we have granted time-based restricted share units, which we have generally used as a retention mechanism. We did not grant time-based restricted share units to our named executive officers in 2022.
In 2022, we granted performance share awards to all of our named executive officers, and we granted options to all of our named executive officers other than Messrs. Tyagarajan and Weiner. The performance share awards represented between approximately 30% and 45% of the total 2022 target compensation for our named executive officers (which in the case of our CEO includes the annualized portion of his 2018 option grant), and the 2022 option awards represented between approximately 30% and 40% of the total 2022 target compensation for our named executive officers who received them.
In 2018, our CEO was granted an option covering 2,133,106 common shares. This was a five-year grant (vesting 50% in 2021 and 50% in 2023), and we have not granted our CEO any other option awards since 2018. The compensation committee structured the 2018 option as a five-year grant in part because it will continue to focus our CEO on share price appreciation, thereby aligning his interests with those of our shareholders, and also because the compensation committee believed that a five-year grant would be more effective than smaller annual grants in retaining his services and incentivizing him to deliver superior long-term performance.
2022 Option Grants
In 2022, we granted options to all of our named executive officers other than Messrs. Tyagarajan and Weiner. The exercise price for each option granted in 2022 is equal to the closing price of our common shares on the grant date. The options granted in 2022 vest over a five-year period, 50% in 2025 and the remaining 50% in 2027, provided the executives continue in service through each vesting date.
2022 Performance Share Awards
In 2022, we granted performance share awards to all of our named executive officers. For the 20152022 performance share awards, the compensation committee concluded that, as in prior years, a one-year performance period was the most appropriate for our company, together with a three-year cliff service vesting schedule.

TABLE OF CONTENTS2015 Performance Share Awards    

In March 2015, we granted

| Executive Officer Compensation
These performance goals were chosen to sharpen our focus on our key financial priorities for 2022, aligning our leaders to common goals. We continued to use AOI as a metric in our 2022 performance share awards to Messrs. Cogny, Fitzpatrick, Singhfocus our executives on operational excellence and Thukral.

profitable growth, and we again used net bookings as a metric because we believe net bookings are an indicator of future revenue growth. Net bookings refer to new bookings for the performance period reduced by the total value of significant contract cancellations or reductions that occur during the performance period, whether related to contracts signed during the current year or any prior period. For 2022, we added transformation services bookings as a goal, replacing transformation services revenue, which was a goal in our 2021 performance share awards, because we believe that putting the emphasis on bookings rather than revenue better supports our long-term growth targets. Finally, the addition of renewal bookings as a fourth metric in the 2022 performance awards is also intended to incentivize future revenue growth by increasing management focus on critical client deal renewals. For purposes of the 2022 performance share awards, renewal bookings refers to new bookings for the performance period that continue or expand prior contracts with a specified list of clients where the terms of those contracts either expired in 2022 or were set to expire in 2022, thereby continuing an existing or recently terminated revenue stream for a new or extended term. Accordingly, our performance share awards hold our leadership team accountable for driving growth in areas of strategic importance and directly link our executive compensation opportunities to our overall business growth and the success of our strategies.

We use a one-year performance period for our performance share awards to allow us to adapt our performance-based compensation goals to interim strategic changes in our business in a rapidly changing business environment, keeping our compensation structure agile and capable of serving as a lever to incentivize business performance. The actualthree-year cliff service vesting schedule under our performance share awards helps to ensure that our executives are incentivized to focus on sustaining longer-term Company performance even after the performance year goals have been achieved.
Under the 2022 performance share awards, there were three designated levels of attainment for each performance goal, as illustrated in the table below. Performance between the established levels was determined on a straight-line basis.

Vesting of any single component of the four performance tranches of the award (based on the four performance goals) depended on achievement of threshold performance for such tranche. Each tranche could vest independently of the other three tranches. Accordingly, failure to achieve the threshold level of one or more goals would have negatively affected the overall vesting percentage but would not have prevented the awards from vesting with respect to the other goals, assuming achievement of the qualifying level of AOI margin and at least one of the performance goals at the threshold level at a minimum. In setting the performance goals for these awards, our compensation committee determined that the targets were challenging to achieve and designed the awards to reflect our pay-for-performance philosophy, including, for example, continuing to require AOI margin as a qualifying criterion. The table below sets out the threshold and outstanding performance levels as a percentage of the target performance level for each metric under our 2022 performance share awards:

The number of common shares of the Company into which the 20152022 performance shares will convert (subject to continued service vesting) is calculated by multiplying the number of target performance shares designated under the award by a performance percentage ranging from 0% to 250% based on the Company’s adjusted income from operations, adjusted income from operations margin, revenues and new bookings during the period from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015.  Adjusted income from operations and adjusted income from operations margin are qualifying criteria so that if either goal is not attained, no payout will occur regardless of the level of attainment of any of the other metrics. For the revenues and new bookings goals, which are equally weighted, there are three designated levels of attainment, as illustrated in the table below.

If performance for any of the metrics is below the threshold, no payout will occur. In setting the performance goals for these awards, our compensation committee determined that the targets were challenging to achieve, and the targets set were consistent with the financial outlook we disclosed at the beginning of 2015.

Based on our 20152022 financial results,performance, the 20152022 performance share awards granted to our named executive officers will cliff vest on January 10, 2018 at 94% of2025, provided in each case the target shares, representing slightly below target performance relative to the equally-weighted revenue and new bookings goals, provided thenamed executive officer remains in service through such service vesting date, at 108.382% of the target number of shares, representing above-target achievement of the transformation services bookings goal and lower-than-target but higher-than-threshold achievement of the AOI, net bookings and renewal bookings goals. In addition, in the event of a named executive officer’s termination of service by reason of death or disability, a pro rata portion of such shares will vest based on the period of service through the termination date.

The table below shows the number of target shares subject to the performance share awards granted to our named executive officers in 2022, as well as the number of shares earned and issuable (subject to continued service) based on actual performance.

Benefits and Perquisites

We provide other benefits to our named executive officers that are generally available to other employees in the country in which the named executive officer is located. We also provide our named executive officers with certain modest perquisites whichthat we believe are reasonable and consistent with market trendspractices in the countries in which our named executive officers are located. Such benefits and perquisites are intended to be part of a competitive overall compensation program. For more details on the benefits provided to our named executive officers, see “—2015“2022 Summary Compensation Table” and “—Narrative“Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table and GrantGrants of Plan-Based Awards Table.”

Severance Arrangements

Our U.S.-based named executive officers are also eligible to participate in the Genpact LLC Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”), as described in the section titled “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan.”

CHANGE OF CONTROL AND SEVERANCE BENEFITS
Under the terms of our equity incentive plan, in the event of a change of control, the options and performance share awards granted to our named executive officers in 2022 will accelerate unless the options or awards are assumed, continued or substituted. If the options or awards are assumed, continued or substituted, then they will continue to vest over the service period. Any assumed, continued or substituted performance share awards are subject to accelerated vesting in the event of the executive officer’s termination without cause within 24 months following the change of control in accordance with the terms of the performance share awards. Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Tyagarajan’s 2018 option grant, in the event of his termination without cause or for good reason prior to May 8, 2023 and within 24 months following a change of control in which the option is assumed, continued or substituted, the option will become vested and exercisable for all the shares.
We have entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Tyagarajan, Cogny and Fitzpatrickour named executive officers which provide for certain payments and benefits in the event of a termination of employment. The employment agreements with Ms. Stein and Messrs. Kalra, Saumur and Weiner also provide for partial accelerated vesting of equity awards upon certain qualifying terminations without a change of control and full acceleration upon certain qualifying terminations in connection with a change of control.
The severance payments and benefits were based on individual negotiations with each executive and are an important part of employment arrangements designed to retain such executives and provide certainty with respect to the payments and benefits to be provided upon certain termination events. For additional details on these payments and benefits, see “—Potential Payments upon Termination or Change of Control.”

Change of Control

Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Tyagarajan’s employment agreement, the vesting of all of his outstanding equity awards will accelerate in full upon a change in control. Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Fitzpatrick’s employment agreement, the vesting of his equity awards will accelerate in the event of his termination without cause or for good reason within 24 months following a change in control. In the event of a change in control, the performance shares granted to our named executive officers will convert into either a right to receive common shares representing 100% of the target performance shares without regard to performance or a number of common shares based on actual performance, depending on when the change in control occurs. These benefits are described in more detail in “—Narrative“Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table and GrantGrants of Plan-Based Awards Table—Employment Agreements with Named Executive Officers—N.V.

Equity Grant Practices

All stock options granted by the Company have an exercise price equal to the closing market price of our common shares on the grant date. Equity grants are typically approved at our quarterlyregularly scheduled compensation committee meetings, and, unless a future effective date is specified, become effective as of the date of the meeting at which they are approved. The dates for our quarterly compensation committee meetings are generally scheduled months and sometimes up to a year, in advance. In certain cases, equity grants to new hires or promoted employees are approved by written consent outside of regularly scheduled compensation committee meetings and are effective as of the latest date a committee member signs the consent. Our compensation committee has delegated limited authority to the CEO and our Senior Vice President ofChief Human Resources Officer to jointly grant equity awards between regularly scheduled compensation committee meetings to individuals other than executive officers and directors, with prescribed per person and aggregate quarterly limitations.

Share Ownership Guidelines

The Committeecompensation committee recognizes the critical role that executive share ownership has in aligning the interests of management with those of shareholders. As such, we maintain a formalshareholders and, in 2019, adopted share ownership policy under whichguidelines that apply to all executive officers and directors. Prior to 2019, only our CEO was subject to a share ownership requirement. For more information about our director share ownership guidelines, see the CEO issection above titled “Director Compensation.”
Under our share ownership guidelines, all of our executive officers are required to acquire and hold Genpact common shares with a value of at least (i) in an amount representing a multiplethe case of the CEO, six times his base salary, and (ii) in the case of every other executive officer, such officer’s base salary. UntilEach executive officer other than our CEO has a five-year phase-in period to meet the ownership requirements, measured from the later of the adoption of the guidelines in 2019 or the date such person became an executive officer.
After the initial phase-in period, each executive officer is required to retain 100% of the shares issued upon option exercises and vesting of restricted share and performance share awards (net of any shares withheld or sold to cover withholding taxes and other applicable taxes) until the designated multiple of base salary is reached, the CEO is required to retain 100% of the after-tax net proceeds associated with stock option exercises and vesting of restricted share units and performance shares.reached. Shares counted toward the ownership requirement consist of shares owned by the CEOdirectly and shares owned jointly by the CEOofficer and histhe officer’s spouse or held in a trust established by the CEOofficer for the benefit of the CEOofficer and/or histhe officer’s family members. Unvested restricted share units and performance share awards and unexercised stock options do not count toward the ownership requirement.

Recovery Policy

Our performance share awards provideinclude a clawback provision that if a named executive officer has breached any restrictive covenant under any agreement with the Company during employment or during the one-year period following termination of employment,provides that we have the right to terminate the award and cancel any shares issued under the award and be paid any proceeds received by sucha named executive officer from the sale of shares issued under the award.

award if such officer has breached any restrictive covenant contained in any agreement with the Company during employment or during the one-year period following termination of employment or if the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement for any part of the performance period due to material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements under the U.S. federal securities laws which the Company determines is the result of fraud, negligence, or intentional or gross misconduct by the participant.

On October 26, 2022, the SEC adopted final rules implementing the incentive-based compensation recovery provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. The final rules direct the stock exchanges to establish listing standards requiring listed companies to develop and implement a policy providing for the recovery of erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation received by current or former executive officers and to satisfy related disclosure obligations. We intend to timely adopt a clawback policy to reflect these new requirements.

| Executive Officer Compensation
paid to our named executive officers in excess of $1 million is not deductible unless it qualifies for the transition relief applicable to certain compensation arrangements in place as of November 2, 2017. Because of the uncertainties as to the scope and application of the transition relief, no assurances can be given that compensation deemed paidintended to an executive officersatisfy the requirements for exemption under Section 162(m) will in connection withfact be fully deductible. The compensation committee will continue to consider the exercisetax impact of stock options or stock appreciation rights should qualify as performance-basedthe Company’s compensation programs but reserves the right to pay compensation that is not subject to the $1 million limitation. In addition, restricted share units and performance share awards with performance-vesting goals tied to one or more of the performance criteria approved by the shareholders under the 2007 Plan may also be structured to qualify as performance-based compensation for Section 162(m) purposes.

However, restricted share units and performance share awards subject only to service-vesting requirements will not qualify as such performance-based compensation. Other awards made under the 2007 Plan may or may not so qualify. In establishing the cash and equity incentive compensation programs for the executive officers, it is the compensation committee’s view that the potential deductibility of the compensation payable under those programs should be only one of a number of relevant factors taken into consideration, and not the sole governing factor. For that reason the compensation committee may deem it appropriate to continue to provide one or more executive officers with the opportunity to earn incentive compensation, including cash bonus programs tied to the Company’s financial performance and restricted share unit and performance share awards, which may be in excess of the amount deductible by reason of Section 162(m) or other provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. It is the compensation committee’s belief that cash and equity incentive compensation must be maintained at the requisite level to attract and retain the executive officers essential to the Company’s financial success, even if all or part of that compensation may not be deductible by reason of the Section 162(m) limitation.

CEO REALIZABLE COMPENSATION

The values reported in our Summary Compensation Table include the estimated fair value of long-term incentive awards at the time of grant as determined for accounting purposes. This estimated fair value is not reflective of actual award values and often differs significantly from the values ultimately received by our senior executives. We believe that realizable compensation, which reflects the actual current value of outstanding long-term incentive awards from prior years, helps us to better assess our pay for performance alignment.

Realizable compensation provides clarity on how compensation outcomes are influenced by company performance. This is particularly important because equity-based awards account for the most significant portion of the total compensation of our CEO and our other named executive officers. Because the compensation committee believes that long-term, equity-based compensation drives long-term growth, consideration of actual and potential values realizable from awards granted in prior years is a highly relevant factor in assessing the effectiveness of our compensation program’s continued alignment with our shareholders’ long-term interests.

The following table sets forth the realizable pay for our CEO for fiscal years 2013, 20142020, 2021 and 2015.

N.V. Tyagarajan.Tyagarajan. We entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Tyagarajan on June 15, 2011, which supersedes his previous employment agreement, dated February 7, 2005. The employment agreement was amended on November 17, 2020 in connection with Mr. Tyagarajan’s relocation to the United Kingdom to address the payment of his cash compensation in local currency and the continued application of the covenants and certain other provisions under his employment agreement. The employment agreement has an indefinite term and may be terminated by us or Mr. Tyagarajan, subject to the severance provisions described below. The employment agreement provides for an annual base salary of not less than $600,000 and a target bonus of 125% of annual base salary. For 2022, the compensation committee set Mr. Tyagarajan’s base salary at $824,000, an increase of 3% compared to his 2021 base salary, and his target bonus at $1,300,000, or approximately 158% of base salary, unchanged from his 2021 target bonus. Mr. Tyagarajan is entitled to benefits and perquisites generally available to our other senior executives, reimbursement of automobile costs and $60,000 for personal costs. Mr. Tyagarajan is also entitled to four weeks of paid vacation per year.

Pursuant to the terms of the employment agreement, Mr. Tyagarajan was granted the following equity awards on June 15, 2011:

(i) Options covering 250,000 common shares of the Company at a per share exercise price of $15.34, the closing price of our common shares on the June 15, 2011 grant date of the options. In connection with the special cash dividend paid in September 2012, the number of shares was adjusted to 283,625 shares and the exercise price per share was adjusted to $13.52. The options vested in four equal annual installments upon Mr. Tyagarajan’s completion of each year of employment over the four-year period measured from June 17, 2011.

(ii) Restricted share units covering 200,000 common shares of the Company. The restricted share units vested in four equal annual installments upon Mr. Tyagarajan’s completion of each year of employment with the Company over the four-year period measured from June 17, 2011.

In May 2013 Mr. Tyagarajan was granted additional performance shares covering a target number of 100,000 common shares which were to vest on January 10, 2016 but were forfeited for failure to satisfy the specified performance criteria.

In August 2012, Mr. Tyagarajan’s awards were amended so that the purchase of our shares by an affiliate of Bain Capital would not be deemed to be a change in control (and therefore not result in an accelerated vesting of the awards) and also to amend the definition of a change in control for future events. In order to comply with the rules set forth under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, in connection with the amendment to Mr. Tyagarajan’s restricted share unit grant, the Company agreed to issue Mr. Tyagarajan an additional 30,000 restricted share units (which were adjusted to 34,035 as a result of the special cash dividend) following the closing of Bain Capital’s share purchase.

Performance Share Awards

The performance sharesshare awards granted to our named executive officers in 20152022 under the 2017 Plan will convert into actual common shares of the Company based on the Company’s attainment of certain performance goals measured over the period beginning January 1, 20152022 and ending December 31, 20152022 and the individual’s continued service with the Company through January 10, 2018.2025. Each award specifies a target number of performance shares. The actual number of common shares of the Company into which the performance shares willare to convert is calculated by multiplying the number of target performance shares designated under the award by a performance percentage ranging from 0% to 250%200%. Under the 2022 performance share awards, the performance percentage was based on the Company’s adjusted income from operations, adjusted income from operations margin, newAOI, net bookings, transformation services bookings and revenuerenewal bookings during the period from January 1, 20152022 to December 31, 2015. Adjusted income from operations and adjusted income from operations2022.
Under each award, AOI margin areis a qualifying criteriacriterion, and for the other twofour goals, which are weighted 33% to AOI, 33% to transformation services bookings, 24% to net bookings and 10% to renewal bookings, there are three designated levels of attainment: threshold, target and outstanding. IfEach of the four performance goals under the 2022 awards is independent, such that failure of the Company to achieve the threshold performance level for any metricsingle goal would affect the overall vesting percentage but would not prevent the awards from vesting with respect to the other goals for which threshold performance was attained, assuming the qualifying AOI margin is belowachieved and at least one other goal is met at the threshold no payout will occur.level at a minimum. See the section titled “Equity-Based Compensation—2022 Performance Share Awards” above for more information. Based on our 2015 adjusted income from operations, adjusted income from operations margin, new bookings and revenue growth,2022 results, the 20152022 performance sharesshare awards will vest (subject in each case to the recipient’s continued service through January 10, 2025) at 94%108.382% of the target number of shares.

Under our 2022 performance share awards, if a change of control of the Company had occurred prior to the end of the performance period on December 31, 2022, the number of shares issuable under each award would have been at the target level. If a change of control of the Company occurs after the end of the performance period but before the end of the service vesting period, the number of shares issuable will be based on actual performance. The awards may be assumed, substituted or continued in connection with a change of control and continue to vest based on the service vesting requirements of the awards. If not assumed, substituted or continued, then the awards will vest in full (at target or based on actual performance, as applicable) and become payable at the time of the change of control. A performance share award will vest in full in the event of a participant’s termination by the Company without cause within 24 months following a change of control of the Company in connection with which the award is assumed, continued or substituted.
Additionally, each of the performance share awards will vest on a pro-rated basis based on actual performance in the event of the recipient’s termination by reason of death or disability during the service period. As described above, under the employment agreements for our NEOs other than the CEO, the performance share awards are subject to partial acceleration upon certain involuntary terminations without a change of control.
The performance share awards (and any shares issued thereunder or proceeds from the sale of such shares) are subject to forfeiture in the event of a breach of restrictive covenants. See “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Recovery Policy.”

Change of Control

Pursuant to the 2007 Plan and the 2017 Plan, unless otherwise provided in an individual award agreement, in the event of a change of control of our company,the Company, existing awards may be assumed, substituted or continued. If the awards are not so assumed, substituted or continued, then:

any options and SARs outstanding as of the date the change of control is determined to have occurred will become fully exercisable and vested, as of immediately prior to the change of control;

all performance units and cash incentive awards will be paid out as if “target”target performance levels had been attained, but pro-rated based on the portion of the performance period that elapses prior to the change of control;

and

performance share awards will become payable at target levels or based on actual performance depending on whether a change in control occurs during or after the performance period; and

all other outstanding awards will automatically be deemed exercisable or vested and all restrictions and forfeiture provisions related thereto will lapse as of immediately prior to such change of control.

Contributions are included in Note 17—“Employee benefit plans”the Summary Compensation Table under the “Salary” and “Non-equity Incentive Plan Compensation” columns for Mr. Kalra. Non-equity incentive plan awards were earned with respect to our audited consolidated financial statements forfiscal 2022 but awarded after the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015and, accordingly, the deferred amounts were contributed to the Deferred Compensation Plan in 2023. This column excludes amounts contributed in 2022 but earned with respect to fiscal 2021.
(2)
Earnings include realized and unrealized gains and losses, capital gains and losses, and dividends paid. Because the deferrals of non-equity incentive plan compensation earned with respect to fiscal 2022 did not occur until after the end of the fiscal year, no earnings on these amounts are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.this column.
(3)
Includes contributions of non-equity incentive plan compensation that was earned with respect to fiscal 2022 but contributed to the Deferred Compensation Plan in 2023.
The Deferred Compensation Plan provides a select group of management or highly compensated employees (within the meaning of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended) of Genpact LLC and participating affiliates, including our U.S.-based named executive officers, the opportunity to defer from 1% up to 80% of their base salary and from 1% up to 100% of their qualifying bonus compensation (or such other minimums or maximums as determined by the administrator of the Deferred Compensation Plan). Participant deferrals are 100% vested at all times. The Deferred Compensation Plan also allows discretionary supplemental employer contributions by Genpact USA, Inc. (the “Member”), in the Member’s sole discretion, to be credited to some or all participant accounts. Discretionary supplemental employer contributions, if made, will be subject to a two-year vesting

A participant’s compensation deferrals and discretionary supplemental employer contributions (if any) will be credited or debited with notional investment gains and losses equal to the experience of selected hypothetical investment funds offered under the Deferred Compensation Plan and elected by the participant. The administrator of the Deferred Compensation Plan has the discretion to establish procedures by which the participants can change their investment elections among the available alternatives. Currently, participants can change their elections on a daily basis, subject to excessive trading limits.
A participant may elect to receive his or her deferred compensation and earnings thereon either (a) in a specified year or (b) following separation from service, in a single sum or in annual installments over a period of up to 15 years.
If a participant does not make an election with respect to the timing and/or form of payment, the deferred compensation will be paid in a lump sum upon participant’s separation from service. Any supplemental employer contribution will be paid upon a participant’s separation from service in the form of payment elected by the participant, unless otherwise designated by the Member at the time the contribution is authorized. Pursuant to the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan, payments may be accelerated in certain circumstances, including death of the participant, unforeseeable emergency, limited cashouts, payment of taxes, certain limited offsets to satisfy debt due to the Company, failure of the Plan to meet statutory requirements and termination of the Deferred Compensation Plan.

CEO PAY RATIO
For 2022, Mr. Tyagarajan’s total annual compensation as disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table was $4,166,783, and the total annual compensation (taking into account a cost-of-living adjustment for wages paid to employees outside the U.S.) for our median employee, located in India, was $27,844, resulting in a pay ratio of 150:1. We have employees in more than 35 countries, and more than 90% of our employees are located outside of the U.S. Most of these non-U.S. employees are based in India and other countries in which wage levels have historically been significantly lower than wage levels in the U.S. and Western Europe for comparably skilled professionals.
We used the following methodology and assumptions to identify the median employee and calculate the annual total compensation of the median-paid employee:
We selected October 1, 2022 as the date on which to determine our median employee. As of that date, we had more than 118,000 active, full-time employees, of which only approximately 8,000 were located in the U.S.
SEC regulations allow employers to identify the median based on a consistently applied compensation measure, or CACM. We used (A) annualized base salary plus (B) target bonus or other incentive compensation for 2022 as our CACM because these two elements are consistently available across all countries where we have employees.
We ranked this compensation measure for our employees from lowest to highest. This calculation was performed for all employees, excluding Mr. Tyagarajan, whether employed on a full-time, part-time, or seasonal basis.
We converted amounts paid in foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar based on the applicable 2022 average exchange rates.
As permitted by SEC rules, we performed two separate calculations in identifying our median employee: one involved making a cost-of-living-adjustment (“COLA”) for individuals employed outside of the U.S. and Puerto Rico, and one did not employ a COLA for those individuals. We performed the COLA based on the figures available as of the determination date of October 1, 2022 from the World Bank Price Level Ratio of PPP Conversion Factor (GDP) to market exchange rate, available at http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/PA.NUS.PPPC.RF. Using the COLA, we determined that our median employee was an employee working in India as discussed above. The exchange rate we used to convert our median employee’s compensation to the U.S. dollar for 2022 was 1 Indian rupee to 0.0127997 U.S. dollar, and based on the most recent figures available from the World Bank Price Level Ratio of PPP Conversion Factor (GDP) to market exchange rate, available at http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/PA.NUS.PPPC.RF, a COLA of 1 to 0.3105519 was applied to this individual’s U.S. dollar-converted annual total compensation. Performing the median employee identification analysis without employing a cost-of-living adjustment, we determined that the 2022 annual total compensation for a different median employee, also located in India, was $10,341, resulting in a pay ratio of 403:1. The exchange rate we used to convert such employee’s 2022 compensation to the U.S. dollar was 1 Indian rupee to 0.0127997 U.S. dollar. Because our median employee is located in India and our CEO is located in the U.S., our CEO pay ratio is higher than it would be if our employee base were concentrated primarily in the U.S. or if most of our employees, including our CEO, were employed in the same jurisdiction.
We believe the pay ratio reported above is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our internal records and the methodology described above. Because the SEC rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating pay ratio allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, apply certain exclusions, and make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices, our pay ratio may not be comparable to the pay ratios reported by other companies.

Pay versus Performance
The table below shows the following information for the past three fiscal years: (i) total compensation for our principal executive officer (PEO) and, on average, our other named executive officers (non-PEO NEOs) as disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table above; (ii) the “compensation actually paid” to our PEO and, on average, to our non-PEO NEOs, calculated as required by SEC pay versus performance rules; (iii) our total shareholder return (TSR); (iv) the TSR of the peer group we use for purposes of Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K; (v) our net income; (vi) our revenue and (vii) our adjusted income from operations (“AOI”), which is a non-GAAP measure. We selected revenue and AOI as the most important measures linking compensation actually paid to our NEOs for 2022 to Company performance – revenue because it is a primary metric in our annual non-equity incentive compensation plan and several of the goals in our long-term incentive compensation plan target revenue growth in certain services or promote long-term revenue growth, and AOI because it was the predominant metric used in our 2022 compensation plans, both as a qualifying metric and a performance metric for the 2022 PSU awards and as a performance metric for our 2022 annual non-equity incentive plan, as described in more detail in the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis.” See Exhibit 1 to this Proxy Statement for a reconciliation of AOI to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
“Compensation actually paid” does not represent the value of cash and Company common shares received by our NEOs during the year, but rather is an amount calculated in accordance with SEC rules and includes, among other things, year-over-year changes in the value of unvested equity-based awards. As a result of the calculation methodology required by the SEC, the “compensation actually paid” amounts disclosed below differ from the compensation actually received by our NEOs.

BOARD RECOMMENDATION

The board recommends that you vote “FOR” the approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules.





PROPOSAL 2 – Proposal Two —
NON-BINDING VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act enacted in July 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), the

The Company’s shareholders are entitled to vote at the annual general meeting to approve, on an advisory, non-binding basis, the compensation of our named executive officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement in accordance with the standards established under Item 402 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The shareholder vote on executive compensation is an advisory vote only, and it is not binding on the Company, or our Boardboard of directors or the compensation committee. The outcome of this advisory vote does not overrule any decision by the Company or the board of directors (or any committee thereof), or create or imply any additional fiduciary duties for the Company or the board of directors (or any committee thereof).

Although the vote is non-binding, our Boardboard of directors and the compensation committee value the opinions of theour shareholders and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions affecting the Company’s executive officers.

At the past three annual general meetings of our shareholders held in May of each of 2020, 2021 and 2022, the results of the shareholder advisory votes supported our executive compensation programs, with approximately 84%, 93% and 96% of the votes, respectively, having been cast for the approval of the compensation of our named executive officers.

Our shareholders are given the opportunity to vote on an advisory, non-binding basis on the compensation of our named executive officers annually. The next opportunity for our shareholders to vote on such a proposal will be at the 2024 annual general meeting of our shareholders. As described in the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” our executive compensation program has a strong pay-for-performance alignment and is designed to reward the achievement of our annual, long-term and strategic goals, such as increasing bookings and growing revenues, improving operating margins and deepening client relationships and managing employee attrition levels.relationships. It is also designed to align the interests of our executives, including our named executive officers, with those of our shareholders by rewarding performance that exceeds our goals, with the ultimate objective of increasing shareholder value. Shareholders are urged to read the foregoing “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this proxy statement, which more thoroughly discusses how we believe our compensation policies and procedures complement our compensation philosophy. Our Boardboard of directors and our compensation committee believe that these policies and procedures are effective in implementing our compensation philosophy and in achieving its goals.

The vote on this resolution is not intended to address any specific element of compensation; rather, the vote relates to the compensation of our named executive officers, as described in this proxy statement.

We are asking our shareholders to vote for the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the Company’s shareholders hereby approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in the proxy statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section, the various compensation tables and the accompanying narrative discussions.”

BOARD RECOMMENDATION:

| PROPOSAL 3


BOARD RECOMMENDATION:

The board of directors recommends that you vote EVERY YEAR with respect to how frequently a non-binding shareholder vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers should occur.

Proposal Three –
NON-BINDING VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF NON-BINDING SHAREHOLDER VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the Company’s shareholders are also entitled to vote FORat the approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, ofannual meeting regarding whether the shareholder vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers as required by Section 14A(a)(2) of the Exchange Act (and as presented in Proposal 2 of this proxy statement) should occur every year, once every two years or once every three years. Shareholders will also have the option to abstain from voting on the matter. The shareholder vote on the frequency of the non-binding shareholder vote to approve executive compensation is an advisory vote only, and it is not binding on the Company or our Board. Such an advisory vote will be provided to shareholders at least every six years.
Although the vote is non-binding, both the Board of Directors and the compensation committee value the opinions of our shareholders and will consider the outcome of the vote when setting the frequency of the shareholder vote on executive compensation.
The Board has determined that an advisory shareholder vote on executive compensation that occurs every year is the best approach for the Company and its shareholders. In reaching this conclusion, the Board considered that holding an annual advisory vote on executive compensation allows shareholders to provide direct input on our compensation policies and practices as disclosed in thisthe proxy statement pursuant to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules.

Audit Committee’s Pre-approval Policy and Procedures

The audit committee has adopted policies and procedures for the pre-approval of audit and non-audit services for the purpose of maintaining the independence of the registered public accounting firm. We may not engage the independent registered public accounting firm to render any audit or non-audit service unless either the service is approved in advance by the audit committee or the engagement to render the service is entered into pursuant to the audit committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures.

Why did I receive a Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials instead of printed copies of these materials in the mail?

In accordance with rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), we have elected to furnish our proxy materials to shareholders over the Internet. Most shareholders are receiving by mail the Notice, which provides general information about the annual meeting, the address of the website on which our proxy statement and annual report are available for review, printing and downloading, and instructions on how to submit proxy votes. For those who wish to receive their materials in a different format (e.g., paper copy by mail), the Notice contains instructions on how to do so. Shareholders who have elected to receive paper copies of the proxy materials will receive these materials by mail.
Can I change my vote after I have mailed my proxy card or after I have submitted my proxy to vote my shares over the Internet?

online or by telephone?

Yes. You can revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the polls close at the meeting by doing any one of the following things:

signing and delivering another proxy with a later date to our Corporate Secretary, c/o Genpact LLC, 1155 Avenue of the Americas, 4th Floor, New York, New York 10036 USA;

submitting another proxy to vote with a later date overonline, by telephone or by scanning the Internet;

QR code;
signing and delivering another proxy with a later date to our Corporate Secretary, c/o Genpact LLC, 521 Fifth Avenue, 14th Floor, New York, NY 10175;

giving our Corporate Secretary written notice before or at the meeting that you want to revoke your proxy; or

voting in person at the meeting.

Your attendance at the meeting alone will not revoke your proxy.

Can I vote if my shares are held in “street name?”

If the shares you own are held in “street name” by a bank or brokerage firm, your bank or brokerage firm, as the record holder of your shares, is required to vote your shares according to your instructions. In order to vote your shares, you will need to follow the directions your bank or brokerage firm provides you. Many banks and brokerage firms also offer the option of voting over the Internetonline or by telephone, instructions for which would be provided by your bank or brokerage firm on your vote instruction form.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| Important Information about the Annual General Meeting and Voting
If yourthe shares you own are held in street name,“street name” by a bank or brokerage firm, you must bring an account statement or letter from your brokerage firm or bank showing that you are the beneficial owner of the shares as of the record date in order to be admitted to the meeting on May 3, 2016.4, 2023. To be able to vote your shares held in street name at the meeting, you will need to obtain a proxy card from the holder of record.

What is a broker non-vote?

Generally, a “broker non-vote” occurs when a broker, bank or other nominee that holds shares in “street name” for customers is precluded from exercising voting discretion on a particular proposal because (1) the beneficial owner has not instructed the nominee how to vote, and (2) the nominee lacks discretionary voting power to vote such shares. Under New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”)NYSE rules, a nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to the approval of “non-routine” matters absent specific voting instructions from the beneficial owners of such shares.

All proposals other than the ratificationapproval of KPMG as the Company’s independent registered public accountantsaccounting firm for fiscal year 20162023 are non-routine matters and, therefore, common shares held in “street name” will not be voted with respect to these proposals without voting instructions from the beneficial owners. You should follow the instructions provided by your nominee in directing your nominee on how to vote your shares.

What constitutes a quorum?

In order for business to be conducted at the annual meeting with respect to a particular matter, a quorum must be present for that particular matter. For each of the proposals described in the accompanying Notice of 20162023 Annual General Meeting, we will have a quorum if at least two shareholders are present in person or by proxy who hold or represent more than 50 percent of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, or at least 105,228,89291,834,565 shares. Common shares represented in person or by proxy (including “broker non-votes” and shares that abstain or do not vote with respect to a particular proposal to be voted upon) will be counted for the purpose of determining whether a quorum exists at the annual meeting for that proposal. “Broker non-votes” are shares that are held in “street name” by a bank or brokerage firm that indicates on its proxy that it does not have discretionary authority to vote on a particular matter.

If a quorum is not present, the annual meeting will be adjourned until a quorum is obtained.

GENPACT 2016 PROXY STATEMENT| 53


What vote isis required for each item?

For each of the proposals being considered at the annual meeting, approval of the proposal requires the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast. There is no cumulative voting in the election of directors. The election of each director nominee will be considered and voted upon as a separate proposal. Abstentions and broker “non-votes” are not counted as votes cast and will not affect the voting results on any proposals. If the proposal for the election of a director nominee does not receive the required majority of the votes cast, then the director will not be elected and the position on the board of directors that would have been filled by the director nominee will become vacant. The board of directors has the ability to fill any vacancy upon the recommendation of its nominating and governance committee.

How will votes be counted?

Each common share will be counted as one vote according to the instructions contained on a properly completed proxy, whether submitted by mail, over the Internet,online, by telephone or on a ballot voted in person at the annual meeting. Shares will not be voted in respect of a proposal if either (1) the shareholder abstains from voting on a particular matter, or (2) the shares are broker non-votes. If the shareholder signs and submits but does not indicate voting instructions on the proxy card, the proxies will have the authority to vote in respect of all proposals.

Who will count the votes?

An

Computershare, our transfer agent, will serve as independent vote tabulator and will count the votes. ComputershareOur Chief Legal Officer, Heather White, has been appointed by the board of directors as the independent Inspector of Election and will determine the existence of a quorum and validity of proxies and ballots, and certify the results of the voting.

Notice of 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders

Proxy Solicited by Board of Directors for Annual Meeting — May 3, 2016

Victor F. Guaglianone and Heather D. White, or either of them, each with the power of substitution, are hereby authorized to represent and vote the shares of the undersigned, with all the powers which the undersigned would possess if personally present, at the Annual Meeting of Shareholdersshareholders of Genpact Limited, or adjusted income from operations;

Adjusted income from operations margin;
Adjusted diluted earnings per share attributable to shareholders of Genpact Limited, or adjusted diluted earnings per share; and
Revenue growth on a constant currency basis.
In addition to using these measures as compensation performance measures, we use these non-GAAP financial measures for our internal management reporting, budgeting and decision-making purposes, including comparing our operating results to those of our competitors. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be held on May 3,considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Accordingly, these non-GAAP financial measures, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and the reconciliations of our GAAP financial statements to such non-GAAP financial measures should be carefully evaluated.
Prior to July 2012, we used financial statements that excluded significant acquisition-related expenses, amortization of related acquired intangibles, and amortization of acquired intangibles at the company’s formation in 2004 for our internal management reporting, budgeting and decision making purposes, including comparing our operating results to those of our competitors. However, considering our frequent acquisitions of varying scale and size, and the difficulty in predicting expenses relating to acquisitions and the amortization of acquired intangibles thereof, since July 2012 we have used financial statements that exclude all acquisition-related expenses and amortization of acquired intangibles for our internal management reporting, budgeting and decision-making purposes, including comparing our operating results to those of our competitors. For the same reasons, since April 2016 we have excluded the impairment of acquired intangible assets from the financial statements we use for internal management purposes. Acquisition-related expenses are excluded in the period in which an acquisition is consummated.
We also use financial statements that exclude stock-based compensation expense. Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types that companies can use when adopting ASC 718 “Compensation-Stock Compensation,” we believe that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude such expenses allows investors to make additional comparisons between our operating results and those of other companies. Additionally, in our calculations of such non-GAAP financial measures, we have adjusted foreign exchange gains and losses, interest income and expense and income tax expenses from GAAP net income attributable to Genpact Limited shareholders, and other income and expenses, certain gains, losses and impairment charges attributable to equity-method investments, and gains or at any postponement or adjournment thereof.

Shares representedlosses attributable to non-controlling interests from GAAP income from operations because we believe that our results after taking into account these adjustments more accurately reflect our ongoing operations. For the purpose of calculating adjusted diluted earnings per share, the combined current and deferred tax effect is determined by this proxy will be voted as directedmultiplying each pre-tax adjustment by the shareholder. If noapplicable statutory income tax rate.

We provide information about revenues on a constant currency basis so that the revenues may be viewed without the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations compared to prior fiscal periods, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of our true business performance. Revenue growth on a constant currency basis is calculated by restating current-period activity using the prior fiscal period’s foreign currency exchange rates adjusted for hedging gains/losses in such directions are indicated, the Proxies will have authority to vote FOR all the nominees listed in Proposal 1 and FOR Proposals 2 and 3.

In their discretion, the Proxies are authorized to vote upon such other business as may properly come before the meeting.

A limitation of using adjusted income from operations and adjusted income from operations margin versus income from operations, income from operations margin, net income attributable to Genpact Limited shareholders and net income attributable to Genpact Limited shareholders margin calculated in accordance with GAAP is that these non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain recurring costs and certain other charges, namely stock-based compensation and amortization and impairment of acquired intangibles.
