Total Board Compensation, Governance and Performance of Spanish Listed Companies

Abstract: In this paper we present empirical evidence on the relationship between board remuneration of a sample of large Spanish companies and a set of explanatory variables such as performance and size of the company. The objective is to provide additional empirical evidence based on the agency theory for the Spanish institutional context, which differs from most 'Anglo-Saxon' model studies. We focus on the impact of a company's governance structure on the relationship between pay and performance. Specifically, we con… Show more

“…Among them, agency theory has often used by empirical researchers (e.g., Gomez-Meji et al 2005, Mengistae and Xu 2002, Firth et al 2006, Doucouliagos et al 2007, Crespi-Cladera and Gispert 2003.
