Abstract: | The linkage between the use of outside directors and managerial ownership is examined. It is conjectured there are two linkages: 1) the standard incentive-alignment demand for monitoring when managers own little stock and 2) an entrenchment-amelioration demand when managerial stock ownership is high. Consequently, the association between managerial ownership and board composition is predicted to be nonlinear. |
