What happens to CEOs after they retire? New evidence on career concerns, horizon problems, and CEO incentives
Article Abstract:
An examination of the career concerns of CEOs shows that these concerns do not always end with retirement. Many CEOs, in fact, remain active after their retirement, serving on their company's corporate boards. Most of them are CEOs who are retained for board duties because of their performance prior to retirement. Performance, in this case, is usually measured in terms of stock returns to shareholders in their final two years as CEOs. Some CEOs also serve on the boards of other companies. For such CEOs, performance is usually judged by accounting returns rather than stock returns.
