Do Initial Job Market Conditions Really Matter for CEO Pay? Helena Címerová Auckland University of Technology Auckland Finance Meeting 16 December 2013

Outline Under focus: CEO pay efficiency Key findings Cohort effects research & explanations for findings Data + Empirical methodology Results Conclusions

Motivation Is the market for CEOs efficient? Efficient contracting vs rent extraction Efficient? Fair? (no rewards for luck - cohort effects in compensation?) Source:

Key results The market for CEOs is efficient: initial luck not reflected in CEO pay No evidence of persistent rewards for CEOs for good first job No procyclical cohort effects, rather countercyclical (IV) A higher first CEO compensation if good first job (≈30% for top-ten firm), dissipates over time

Cohort effects research Oyer (2006): PhD economists Oyer (2008): MBA investment bankers Kahn (2010): US male college graduates Kwon et al. (2010): US & Swedish workers (recovery phase of business cycle) Schoar and Zuo (2012): “recession CEOs” > procyclical cohort effects <

Cohort effects research - explanations Productivity-based explanations (human capital disparities) Non-productivity based explanations

Data S&P 1,500 universe – public CEOs ,378 obs.; 1,473 companies; 2,184 CEOs ExecuComp, BoardEx Compustat + CRSP NBER, US BLS, Fed Full sample + subsamples; CS Endogeneity and selection

Empirical methodology First placement success (firm size) → current placement success (CEO compensation) Fixed effects estimation Instrumental variables estimation / Two-stage least squares Cross-section (first CEO pay) Robustness checks

Empirical methodology (IV/2SLS) Controls: Firm-level size inv. opportunity firm performance volatility of firm performance CEO-level tenure duality external hire education gender CEO compensation first firm size macro cond. / fin. mkts Instruments: Related to macroeconomic conditions: recession indicator, U.S. unemployment rate, investment-grade bond yield spread Related to financial markets: 1-yr volume chng., 1-yr return, 2-yr std. dev. of S&P 500 index TDC1, TDC2 Mkt. cap, total assets, … CEO talent pipeline

Results (1) FEs (firm fixed effects): <4% / no effects or lack of support in the data? (firm rank 6-12% TDC1, top ten firm % TDC1) IV: 30%-50% countercyclical cohort effects (single instrument, reduced-form regressions) Cross-section: first CEO pay up to 30% higher if top-ten firm

Results (2) Robustness: IV with employment growth rate: no cohort effects Cross-section: stable coefficients Weak-instrument robust estimation with CLR confidence sets: first firm size elasticity relat. to current CEO compensation <-1%

Conclusions / Contributions another test of CEO market efficiency existence and persistence of cohort effects seems to depend on the segment of labor market efficient market for CEOs: initial luck not reflected in CEO pay

Thank you.
