The influence of top management team traits on corporate financial performance in the US

This article aims to study the effect of human capital on the financial performance of the most admired American firms. Human capital is measured in terms of the demographic attributes and the diversity of top managers. The use of panel linear multiple regressions reveals that the most successful firms are characterized by coherent and homogeneous top management teams with moderate tenure and excellent wages. Moreover, the heterogeneity of managers is recommended for fairly young top management teams and for larger firms operating in a turbulent environment. Copyright © 2014 ASAC.

行业属性、拉克尔法则与员工薪酬适度性研究--来自2008-2012年中国资本市场的经验证据

员工薪酬适度性是收入分配制度改革的关键。文章借鉴“拉克尔法则”，以行业属性为视角，选取沪深A股同类行业属性上市公司2008-2012年度财务报告数据，计算“拉克尔阀值”，判别员工薪酬适度性。研究发现，针对销售收入异常波动与垄断性的上市公司，“拉克尔法则”无法判别员工薪酬适度性，但竞争性行业上市公司则能判别员工薪酬适度性；同时，“拉克尔法则”能解释行业属性相同而地域不同的上市公司员工薪酬差异。     

Firm heterogeneity and immigrant wage assimilation

This article investigates the role of job mobility in immigrant wage assimilation. I use longitudinal linked employer–employee data for Portugal to estimate the immigrant wage catch-up in log wage regressions with both individual and firm fixed effects. I show that moving to firms with higher wage premiums accounts for approximately 30% of the immigrant wage catch-up in the first years.     

Understanding employee preferences for investing in employer stock: evidence from France

In this article, we broaden the focus of existing research on employee stock purchase plans by analysing employee preferences for investing in employer stock as a construct distinct from actual investment behaviour. In our analysis of original survey data in a sample of 900 employees in four French companies, we find that employee preferences are influenced by two common cognitive heuristics (representativeness and familiarity), organisational commitment, the perceived quality of corporate communications about these plans and perceived managerial commitment to employee ownership. We did not find, however, that risk aversion, turnover intentions or perceived employee involvement in decision making influenced preferences for investing in employer stock. Our findings have both theoretical and practical implications for understanding and operating these types of employee benefit plans, which are becoming more common across the globe.
