Resumen

Abordamos la influencia de los directores que representan a los inversionistas institucionales en tres aspectos de las políticas de compensación del directorio: nivel de compensación, composición y sensibilidad al desempeño. Distinguimos a los directores sensibles a la presión (es decir, con vínculos comerciales) de los directores resistentes a la presión (es decir, sin vínculos comerciales). Nuestros resultados muestran que los directores resistentes a la presión disminuyen la remuneración total del directorio y su proporción fija, mientras que aumentan la proporción variable de la remuneración total y la sensibilidad al pago por desempeño. Por el contrario, los directores sensibles a la presión ofrecen los resultados opuestos. Estos hallazgos son consistentes con la opinión de que los inversores institucionales no son un grupo homogéneo y que los directores resistentes a la presión cumplen una función de seguimiento más exhaustiva.
