| Abstract: | The authors argue in this study that a resolution of the ambiguity and conflict surrounding executive compensation and corporate control practices requires a more unified perspective on top management compensation, ownership and corporate governance. Drawing from agency and organization research, the study develops and tests a contingency perspective on how organizations seek to ensure appropriate managerial behaviour through a balancing of trade-offs between incentive, monitoring, and risk-bearing arrangements. |
