Create More Value Podcast: Greg Milano on relative TSR and incentives gone wrong

Fortuna Advisors CEO Greg Milano discusses flaws in corporate incentive plans that encourage bad behaviors, from financial manipulation to more subtle agency costs that impact companies’ long-term performance. As the late Michael Jensen said, “It's not how much you pay that matters. It's how you pay." The conversation hones in on the use of Relative Total Shareholder Return (TSR), a measure whose volatility leads to poor linkage to actual performance and undermines executives’ confidence in their incentive plan.
