A controversial and endlessly debatable topic on which this book sheds considerable light and is a most welcome commentary. . . Rather than a collection of learned essays gleaned from various academic journals worldwide, the articles contained within this quite fascinating work of reference - all extensively footnoted - have all been specially commissioned by the editors to provide a wealth of informed, up-to-date commentary on the latest contributions to this debate worldwide from top scholars in this field. . . The book does provide copious resources for further research in the form of footnotes, extensive bibliographies at the end of each article and a detailed index at the back. With its global perspective and erudite approach, this book would certainly be an asset to anyone involved professionally or academically in any matters relating to executive pay.’</i>
- Phillip Taylor MBE and Elizabeth Taylor, The Barrister Magazine,
The authors analyze the two dominant theoretical approaches - managerial power theory and optimal contracting theory - and examine their impact on executive pay levels and the practices of concentrated and dispersed share ownership in corporations. The effectiveness of government regulation of executive pay and international executive pay practices in Australia, the US, Europe, China, India and Japan are also discussed.
A timely study of a controversial topic, this Handbook will be an essential resource for students, scholars and practitioners of law, finance, business, and accounting.
