Corporate Governacne and Pay-Performance Sensitivity

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The present study focuses on the performance sensitivity of CEO wealth for a sample of Australian firms for the period 2005 to 2011. For a sample of 2153 non-financial firm-years, the study analyses the influences of economic determinants, governance and ownership factors on the performance sensitivity of CEO wealth for the pre-GFC, post-GFC sub-periods. Employing pooled OLS and panel random effects (RE) regressions, the study finds that firm size, performance and growth opportunities have a significant positive influence on the performance sensitivity of CEO wealth. Board size, CEO duality, average director tenure and board interlocking have a negative significant influence on the performance sensitivity of CEO wealth while CEO tenure and managerial ownership have a significant positive influence.
