Abstract:This study contributes to the agency and corporate governance literature by: (1) demonstrating that CEO tenure can have a positive relationship to pay-performance sensitivity; (2) providing empirical evidence wich illustrates the importance of the choice of compensation measure; and (3) examining alternative measures of influence, as well as alignment of interests, to further explore the competing interpretations of a tenure effect. Our amalysis of two data sets emphasizes that the use of total pay - stock and options, as well as salary and bonus - is essential when testing alignment hypotheses with current data, due to the growing trend toward high non-cash rewards in CEO compensation.
