The remuneration of CEOs and corporate financial performance in Norway

Article Abstract:

Previous research on the factors affecting CEO remuneration has focused mostly on American firms. To determine if such factors are the same in other countries, the determinants of CEO compensation in firms listed on Norway's stock market are studied. Results indicate a positive relationship between corporate size and CEO compensation, although there was no significant relationship between remuneration and financial performance. A company's average wage level is also found to be a significant factor behind CEO compensation.

The impact of institutional stockholders and managerial interests on the capital structure of firms

Article Abstract:

The interests of a firm's management and its investors are often at odds in the area of risk management. It is commonly assumed that managers want lower debt within a firm's capital framework. Outside shareholders, however, are agreeable to higher debt levels due to their varied investment portfolios. Institutional investors limit management's authority in deciding a firm's capital management processes and their interests are usually in line with the interests of outside stockholders.
