| Abstract: | The author examines empirically whether the executive labor market helped to slot managers with higher education quality into jobs where they can obtain greater returns from their human capital skills. Comparing a sample of regulated gas and electric firms with manufacturing firms, the author finds that utilities attract CEOs with a lower- quality education than unregulated firms do. Comparing a sample of airline firms pre- and postderegulation, airlines have CEOs with a higher-quality education postderegulation. |
