Tiivistelmä: | The effect of compensation of corporate personnel on their investment in new technologies is explored with a focus on a specific corporate activity, that's corporate venture capital (CVC). On average, a performance gap btw. corporate investors and their independent counterparts is observed. The performance gap is sensitive to CVCs' compensation scheme: It is the largest when CVC personnel are awarded performance pay. In addtion to studying the association btw. incentives and performance, documented herein is also a direct relationship btw. incentives and the managers' actions. In conclusion, the three elements of the principal-agent framework are examined, thus offering direct evidence that compensation schemes (or incentives) shape investment practices (managerial action), and ultimately investors' outcome (performance). |
