UC Corporate Governance and Business Ethics Paper
Description
part 1
Assigned Readings:
Chapter 12. Corporate Governance and Business Ethics
Initial Postings: Read and reflect on the assigned readings for the week. Then post what you thought was the most important concept(s), method(s), term(s), and/or any other thing that you felt was worthy of your understanding in each assigned textbook chapter.Your initial post should be based upon the assigned reading for the week, so the textbook should be a source listed in your reference section and cited within the body of the text. Other sources are not required but feel free to use them if they aid in your discussion.
Also, provide a graduate-level response to each of the following questions:
As noted in the chapter, the average compensation for a CEO of an S&P 500 company was $12.4 million, and CEO pay was 300 times the average worker pay. This contrasts with historic values of between 25 and 40 times the average pay. Trying to highlight this disparity the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved a rule in 2015 mandating that U.S. firms publicly disclose the gap between their CEO annual compensation and the median pay of the firms other employees. Thus far there is little evidence the rule has made an impact. What are the potentially negative effects of this increasing disparity in CEO pay? Do you believe that current executive pay packages are justified? Why or why not?
