Abstract:Based on a sample of S&P 1500 firms from 1997 to 2000, this paper explores the effects of outside directors' (henceforth as: o-dirs.) stock-option (here as: s-opts.) compensation (as: comp.) on firms' R&D intensity. Results suggest that including s-opts. in o-dirs.' comp. enhances firms' R&D. In addition, s-opts. comp. moderates the relationship btw. board composition and R&D intensity. These results suggest that o-dirs.' comp. schemes do matter etc.
