Extreme Wage Inequality: Pay at the Very Top
研究了英国工资分布顶层薪酬的增长，发现金融部门贡献了大部分增长，并展示了CEO薪酬与绩效之间更强的关联性。
We provide new evidence on the growth in pay at the very top of the wage distribution in the United Kingdom. Sectoral decompositions show that workers in the financial sector have accounted for the majority of the gains at the top over the last decade. New results are also presented on the pay of CEOs in the United Kingdom. We show how improved measurement of pay points to a stronger pay-performance link than previously estimated. This link is stronger, and more symmetric, for those firms in which institutional investors play a larger role.
