Where do I find information on executive compensation?
Please note: There is one database for this information that may be used in two different sites. These are:
- S&P Executive Compensation. Executive compensation database is available through WRDS. It contains the data collected directly from each company's annual proxy. It provides company's financial and director's annual; deferred; long term incentive award; outstanding equity award; pension benifit and stock option grant.
- ​Mergent Market Atlas Search for your company and then select EXECUTIVES from the tabs for compnesation data for individual positions.
- WRDS is available only for CU graduate students/faculty and staff. Undergraduate students can have access through designated computers in the Business Library. Columbia University faculty and graduate students may request a password.
