Beschreibung:
We use changes in real estate prices to study the sensitivity of CEO compensation to luck and to responses to luck. Pay for luck can be optimal when CEOs are expected to react to luck.

We show that CEO compensation is linked to responses to real estate luck, which can partially explain pay for luck
