摘要
This study examines the relation between pay dispersion among top executives and firm performance and executive turnover. I find that deviations from normal dispersion are associated with deterioration in firm performance and higher executive turnover. I also document that a positive relation between abnormal pay dispersion and executive turnover is driven by low-ranked executives. This study contributes to the existing literature by suggesting that abnormal pay dispersion is an important factor that influences managerial behavior in addition to raw pay dispersion.
