Article title:

"What Incentives do Boards Provide with Inside Debt? The Evidence from Payout Policies"

Annotation:
The paper investigates whether and how the boards can apply inside debt compensation to CEOs to influence payout decisions. The paper contributes to the literature, first, by showing that more inside debt holdings of a CEO increase both the probability and the level of share repurchases. Moreover, inside debt incentivizes a CEO to choose repurchases as a main channel of payout policies. The results demonstrate that inside debt aligns CEO interests not only to those of debtholders, but also to those of shareholders, and therefore inside debt should become effective tool of monitoring CEOs by the boards of directors. However, different components of inside debt (deferred compensation and pension benefits) affect payout decisions differently. The results show that deferred compensation as a shorter-term type of compensation provides incentives for repurchases, while longer-term compensation in the form of pension benefits provides incentives for cash dividends. Therefore, inside debt provides additional flexibility to the boards in monitoring and influencing CEO decisions and performance.
