Nachträgliche Reduktion von Vorstandsbezügen: Eine ökonomische Analyse der Herabsetzungsmöglichkeit von Vorstandsbezügen nach dem VorstAG
Abstract
In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird eine modelltheoretische Untersuchung der verschärften sogenannten Herabsetzungsmöglichkeit von Vorstandsbezügen nach dem VorstAG anhand der Turniertheorie vorgenommen. Hierzu wird ein Modell entwickelt, um mögliche ökonomische Auswirkungen der Verminderung von Vorstandsbezügen zu untersuchen. Das Modell zeigt einige Implikationen zu den Entscheidungen von Vorstand und Aufsichtsrat. -- This paper examines the possibility of reducing executive compensation following the German VorstAG. To examine the potential economic impact of the reduction, a tournament model is introduced.
