Título: Top Mangement team disagreement and its effect on investment.
Autores: Juan Pablo Torres. 
Presenta: Juan Pablo Torres. 
 
Abstract: The aim of this paper is to analyze the effect of the top management team disagreement on firm investment. Specifically, we focus on the management disagreement caused by differences in the pay duration among top managers. At firm level, we compare pay duration of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) with the Chief Finance Officer (CFO) and the rest of the top management team (TMT). To construct the pay duration measure, we follow the novel methodology proposed by Gopalan et al. (2014) that considers information on the executive compensation contracts including the vesting schedules of restricted stock, stock option, bonus and grants. To perform our analysis we use information from the Equilar Consultants (Equilar) database for the period 2006 to 2009. Our preliminary results suggest that higher levels of management disagreement between CEO and CFO are associated with lower investment (CAPEX). Similarly, disagreement between CEO and TMT also relates to lower levels of investment. These findings differ from prior executive compensation literature because they show a negative side effect of executive compensation instead of the traditional and positive view of compensation mechanisms to align incentives in corporate policy decisions.
