Top 50 CEO$
The July issue of Bloomberg Markets lists The Finance 50, ranking the top 50 earners in Finance during the past year. Who’s at the top? You might ask, none other than the CEO of Godman Sachs Lloyd Blankfein, followed in turn by all the other big recognizable names in finance such as American Express, Citigroup and JP Morgan Chase. The article expanding on the list talks about the future of executive compensation and which parties have the power to change the scale of executive pay. Additionally the article talks about other topics such as “silver handshakes” CEO compensation in the UK and Canada and the largest “Golden Send-offs” of 2008. You can read the article on the Bloomberg website but I recommend if you can get your hands on the print version the graphs and charts are really well done.

Interesting list. Not sure if I agree with all of it. Lloyd Blamnkfein seems to be doing a good job with GS it seems. Its also funny that many of the top ceo's are from large banks who are considered to be struggling through 'tough' times. Good article though - thanks for posting.
