Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: General readers have no idea why people should care about what executives are paid and why they are paid the way they are. That's the reason that The Wall Street Journal, Fortune, Forbes, and other popular and practitioner publications have regular coverage on them. This book not only proposes a reason - executives need incentives in order to maximize firm value (economists call this agency theory) - it also describes the nature and design of executive compensation practices. Those incentives can take the form of benefits (salary, stock options), or prerquisites (reflecting the status of the executive within the organizational culture.
Book Synopsis Understanding Executive Compensation and Governance: A Practical Guide by : Irving S. Becker
Download or read book Understanding Executive Compensation and Governance: A Practical Guide written by Irving S. Becker and published by Worldatwork. This book was released on 2021-06-30 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Getting executive compensation right is not an easy task. Finding the appropriate compensation plan to incentivize executives and drive corporate performance is an annual challenge for corporate boards. There is a myriad of factors at play. Boards must balance the need to incentivize individuals, keep compensation costs reasonable, maintain internal equity, and manage shareholder value. While directors wrestle with these factors, matters are made all the more difficult given the scrutiny executive pay now faces by shareholders, legislators, interest groups and the media. In other words, compensating executives has never been more complex. Understanding Executive Compensation & Governance demystifies each component of pay and serves as a go-to resource for individuals in and out of the boardroom. This edition explores the full scope of executive pay, with topics ranging from setting a pay philosophy to arranging deferred compensation programs. This book also covers new and emerging trends in compensation, such as the rise of ESG, the expanding role of the compensation committee, and the use of relative metrics in incentive programs. International compensation is also included with sections on Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. The carefully selected and organized chapters address the basic areas affecting executive compensation. This book synthesizes current knowledge and best practices through a collection of articles, with relevant discussions on the advantages and disadvantages of certain pay decisions. Readers have easy access to a wide range of executive pay issues that are especially pertinent in the current debate on the topic. Relevant to any type of company, whether publicly or privately held, Understanding Executive Compensation & Governance is a must-read for any professional responsible for crafting or overseeing executive pay programs.

Book Synopsis Pay Without Performance by : Lucian A. Bebchuk
Download or read book Pay Without Performance written by Lucian A. Bebchuk and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The company is under-performing, its share price is trailing, and the CEO gets...a multi-million-dollar raise. This story is familiar, for good reason: as this book clearly demonstrates, structural flaws in corporate governance have produced widespread distortions in executive pay. Pay without Performance presents a disconcerting portrait of managers' influence over their own pay--and of a governance system that must fundamentally change if firms are to be managed in the interest of shareholders. Lucian Bebchuk and Jesse Fried demonstrate that corporate boards have persistently failed to negotiate at arm's length with the executives they are meant to oversee. They give a richly detailed account of how pay practices--from option plans to retirement benefits--have decoupled compensation from performance and have camouflaged both the amount and performance-insensitivity of pay. Executives' unwonted influence over their compensation has hurt shareholders by increasing pay levels and, even more importantly, by leading to practices that dilute and distort managers' incentives. This book identifies basic problems with our current reliance on boards as guardians of shareholder interests. And the solution, the authors argue, is not merely to make these boards more independent of executives as recent reforms attempt to do. Rather, boards should also be made more dependent on shareholders by eliminating the arrangements that entrench directors and insulate them from their shareholders. A powerful critique of executive compensation and corporate governance, Pay without Performance points the way to restoring corporate integrity and improving corporate performance.

The authors analyze the two dominant theoretical approaches – managerial power theory and optimal contracting theory – and examine their impact on executive pay levels and the practices of concentrated and dispersed share ownership in corporations. The effectiveness of government regulation of executive pay and international executive pay practices in Australia, the US, Europe, China, India and Japan are also discussed.
