Optimal Relative Performance Evaluation
The theoretical prediction of a negative coe¢ cient on positively correlated peer performance that underlies much of the empirical literature on relative performance evaluation, is commonly obtained from the special case where variance-covariance matrix of the performance measures is exogenously restricted to be independent of the evaluees action. Using the dynamic approach of Holmström and Mi...
متن کاملDiversification and Firm Performance: an Empirical Evaluation
Diversification is a strategic option that many managers use to improve their firms’ performance. This interdisciplinary research attempts to verify whether firm level diversification has any impact on performance. The study finds that on average, diversified firms show better performance compared to undiversified firms on both risk and return dimensions. It also tests the robustness of these r...
متن کاملCorrelation and relative performance evaluation
This paper reexamines the issue of relative versus joint incentive schemes in a multiagent moral hazard framework. It allows to contrast the inference dimension and the insurance property of relative performance evaluation. Importantly, the widespread idea that the principal should use all the more competitive schemes that the equilibrium outcomes are more correlated is shown not to be robust. ...
متن کاملPeer firms in relative performance evaluation
Relative performance evaluation (RPE) in chief executive officer (CEO) compensation provides insurance against external shocks and yields a more informative measure of CEO actions. I argue that empirical evidence on the use of RPE is mixed because previous studies rely on a misspecified peer group. External shocks and flexibility in responding to the shocks are functions of, for example, the fi...

I argue that empirical evidence on the use of RPE is mixed because previous studies rely on a misspecified peer group.
