Episode description

Although mammoth executive compensation packages at hedge funds -- hundreds of millions of dollars a year for some managers with a select few topping $1 billion -- have recently been disclosed in the business press public outrage over soaring CEO pay has been growing for years. Do executive compensation figures reflect an efficient market or a failed one? Are pay levels adequately disclosed? Should shareholders have more say? And if top executives are overpaid what’s to be done about it? Executive compensation was the subject of a panel at the 2007 Wharton Economic Summit.
