For a number of years, executive compensation has risen far more rapidly than that of ordinary workers. In discussing excessive CEO compensation, one commentator suggested the following: “Policies should be passed that boost both the incentive for and the ability of shareholders to exercise greater control over excess CEO pay. Tax policy that penalizes corporations for excess CEO-to-worker pay ratios can boost incentives for shareholders to restrain excess pay. To boost the power of shareholders, fundamental changes to corporate governance have to be made. One key example of such a fundamental change would be to provide worker representation on corporate boards. Finally, as a starting point, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) should change the reporting requirements for corporations calculating their CEO-to-worker pay ratios to make them consistent over time and across firms; this will make these ratios far more useful to policymakers and the public.” Which of those proposals, if any, should be adopted? Explain your reasoning. Are there any negative consequences that could follow implementation of these proposals? Evaluation The quality of your posting will be assessed, not your viewpoint.
