Topic II: Empirical Study
In all work please make reference to the dataset of 2008 FTSE companies performance and their directors pay and characteristics.
Using this data, answer the following questions:
i)What are the determinants of directors pay?
ii)Is this answer plausible?
Your starting point in addressing the task is the lecture slides and references, including those made available to you on Blackboard. The format of your report should be similar to a short research article. It should therefore have the following sections: introduction, literature review, data, methodology, empirical results, conclusion and references. Statistical/econometric analysis must be estimated to address the research question. The report will be judged on the following criteria: a) identifying appropriate published literature to use as a basis for the work, and including a critical review of this literature; b) collecting appropriate data to answer the chosen research question, and discussing the content of the dataset in a clear manner; c) selecting appropriate quantitative methods for analysing the data, and implementing the research design in a convincing manner; d) presenting and interpreting the results in a clear and coherent manner; e) drawing appropriate conclusions from your reading and from your empirical work.
