摘要
We test the deregulation hypothesis that posits that bank CEO compensation became more sensitive to performance as bank management became less regulated. We observe a significant increase in pay-performance sensitivities from our 1976-81 regulation subsample to our 1982-88 deregulation subsample. These increases in pay sensitivies after deregulation are observed for salary and bonus, stock options, and common stock holdings. We observe increases in the pay-performance relation associated with high-capitialization-ratio banks, consistent with providing incentives for wealth creation while even larger increases in pay-performance sensitivity for lower-capitalization-ratio banks suggest an Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation moral hazard problem.
