Myopic corporate behaviour with optimal management incentives

Article Abstract:

Shareholders choose an incentive contract that promotes a bias towards short-term returns when managers trade their own account on the stock market that is observable to market participants but not verifiable in court. The short-term bias is greater when the optimal contract supports low-powered management incentives. Moreover, managers favor short-term stock prices and exhibit myopic behavior when the ratio of short-term to long-term stock price volatility is smaller.
