Author

  • Ying Yan

Abstract

A look at how the FDICIA changes the relationship between pay and performance for bank CEOs. It finds that the legislation improves healthy banks? growth opportunities, making their CEOs? total compensation less sensitive to performance. For unhealthy banks, total compensation becomes more performance-sensitive.
