  1. Management and Misallocation in Mexico

    We argue that greater misallocation is a key driver of the worse management practices in Mexico compared to the US. These management practices are strongly associated with higher productivity, growth, trade, and innovation. One indicator of greater... more

    We argue that greater misallocation is a key driver of the worse management practices in Mexico compared to the US. These management practices are strongly associated with higher productivity, growth, trade, and innovation. One indicator of greater misallocation in Mexico is the weaker size-management relationship compared to the US, particularly in the highly distorted Mexican service sector. Second, the size-management relationship is weaker in smaller markets, measured by distance to the US for manufacturing firms and population density for service firms. Third, municipalities with weaker institutions, measured by contract enforcement, crime, and corruption, have a weaker size-management relation. These results are consistent with frictions lowering aggregate management quality and productivity

    To answer the question whether managers are paid for market power, we propose a theory of executive compensation in an economy where firms have market power, and the market for man- agers is competitive. We identify two distinct channels that contribute to manager pay in the model: market power and firm size. Both increase the profitability of the firm, which makes managers more valuable as it increases their marginal product. Using data on executive compensation from Com- pustat, we quantitatively analyze how market power affects Manager Pay and how it changes over time. We attribute on average 45.8% of Manager Pay to market power, from 38.0% in 1994 to 48.8% in 2019. Over this period, market power accounts for 57.8% of growth. We also find there is a lot of heterogeneity within the distribution of managers. For the top managers, 80.3% of their pay in 2019 is due to market power. Top managers are hired disproportionately by firms with market power, and they get rewarded for it, increasingly so

  3. Industries, Mega Firms, and Increasing Inequality

    Publisher:  National Bureau of Economic Research, Cambridge, Mass

    Most of the rise in overall earnings inequality is accounted for by rising between-industry dispersion from about ten percent of 4-digit NAICS industries. These thirty industries are in the tails of the earnings distribution, and are clustered especially in high-paying high-tech and low-paying retail sectors. The remaining ninety percent of industries contribute little to between-industry earnings inequality. The rise of employment in mega firms is concentrated in the thirty industries that dominate rising earnings inequality. Among these industries, earnings differentials for the mega firms relative to small firms decline in the low-paying industries but increase in the high-paying industries. We also find that increased sorting and segregation of workers across firms mainly occurs between industries rather than within industries

    Although parents in almost all rich democracies are entitled to some form of paid parenting leave, fathers in particular often do not take all the leave available to them. As employers play an important role in the implementation of parenting leave policies, this article investigates what workplace characteristics influence mothers' and fathers' uptake of their statutory leave entitlements. In Part 1, we combine data from the OECD and the European Labor Force Survey to estimate the size of the "implementation gap" between statutory leave entitlements and leave uptake for mothers and fathers, and compare the size of this gap across countries. In Parts 2 and 3, we review the literature on structural and cultural workplace factors that promote or hinder parenting leave uptake. We conclude the article with suggestions for further research and stress the need for reliable data on the uptake of parenting leave entitlements and research on non-European countries. Obwohl Eltern in fast allen westlichen Industrienationen Anspruch auf Auszeiten nach der Geburt eines Kindes haben, nehmen insbesondere Väter diese Möglichkeiten oftmals nicht oder zumindest nicht vollumfänglich wahr. Da Arbeitgeber*innen eine wichtige Rolle bei der Implementierung von Elternzeitangeboten spielen, geht dieser Beitrag der Frage nach, welche Organisations- und Arbeitsplatzmerkmale die Inanspruchnahme von Elternzeit unter Müttern und Vätern beeinflussen. In Teil 1 des Beitrags kombinieren wir Daten der Europäischen Arbeitskräfteerhebung und der OECD, um das Ausmaß der "Implementierungslücke" bei der Elternzeit von Müttern und Vätern ländervergleichend darzustellen. In Teil 2 und 3 fassen wir die Ergebnisse existierender Forschungsarbeiten zu strukturellen und kulturellen Faktoren zusammen, welche die Inanspruchnahme von Elternzeiten begünstigen oder verhindern. In unseren abschließenden Hinweisen zu bestehenden Forschungsdesideraten stellen wir die Notwendigkeit ländervergleichender Erhebungen zur Inanspruchnahme gesetzlicher Elternzeitangeboten sowie Forschung in nicht-europäischen Ländern heraus.
