The way that the bosses of Britain's top companies are paid is once again under intense scrutiny. This month the Business, Innovation and Skills select committee launched an inquiry into corporate governance which will cover executive pay packages.

Theresa May has also highlighted the issue. During her campaign launch speech to become Conservative party leader and Prime Minister she described the growing pay gap between the workers and bosses as "irrational" and "unhealthy.

BP, Smith & Nephew, WPP, Foxtons, GlaxoSmithKilne and Ladbrokes have all faced shareholder objections to senior executive pay packages. Fund mangers are also speaking out, Legal & General Investment Management has recently warned companies to curb the pay packages of top directors.

At what point does executive pay become excessive - are rules and regulations the best way to control it?
