AFA 2011 Denver Meetings Paper
Abstract:
Acharya, Myers, and Rajan (2011) theorize that CEO rent extraction is constrained by subordinate managers. This internal governance works best when the relative contributions of CEOs and managers to output are balanced. Consistent with the theory, we nd a hump-shaped relation between relative contributions and corporate investment, and between relative contributions and firm performance. These hump-shaped relations are stronger for firms with large age gaps between the CEO and the manager, with non-founder CEOs, with higher human capital intensity, and which promote from within. Other forms of governance do not diminish the importance of internal governance, and the results are robust to endogeneity concerns.
