Project Description

View help for Summary
This paper presents an assignment model of CEOs and firms. The distributions
of CEO pay levels and firms' market values are analyzed as the competitive
equilibrium of a matching market where talents, as well as CEO positions,
are scarce. It is shown how the observed joint distribution of CEO pay and
market value can then be used to infer the economic value of underlying
ability differences. The variation in CEO pay is found to be mostly due
to variation in firm characteristics, whereas implied differences in
managerial ability are small and make relatively little difference to
shareholder value.
