Abstract

We measure the impact of “say on pay” (SoP) – mandatory shareholder votes on top-management compensation – on the market value of voting rights. By exploiting the staggered introduction of SoP across 14 economies, we show that SoP does not automatically increase the value of shareholder voting rights. While stricter, binding SoP reforms increase voting values, looser advisory SoP laws decrease them. Firms that do not pay their CEOs excessively experience the largest decreases in voting values. Voting values also reflect a country’s level of investor protection, past dissent in SoP ballots, and dynamically adjust to changes in managerial compensation.

薪酬决定权的价值

我们衡量了 "薪酬说"（SoP）--对高层管理人员薪酬的强制性股东投票--对投票权市场价值的影响。通过在 14 个经济体中交错引入 "薪酬说"，我们发现 "薪酬说 "并不会自动提高股东投票权的价值。更严格、更具约束力的SoP改革会提高投票权价值，而更宽松的SoP咨询法则会降低投票权价值。不向首席执行官支付过高薪酬的公司的投票权价值降幅最大。投票权价值还反映了一个国家的投资者保护水平、过去在《公司法》投票中的异议情况，并随着管理者薪酬的变化而动态调整。
