About the Research
Chief Executive Research surveyed 1,668 companies in April thru June of 2019
about their 2018 fiscal year compensation levels and practices, as well as their expected
compensation levels for the remainder of 2019. We’ve received detailed data about
compensation packages for CEOs and nine other senior executive positions, as well as
comprehensive information about each company’s executive compensation policies and
practices. The substantial response provided meaningful data for companies across
revenue ranges, industries, regions, ownership types and levels of profitability.
Detailed data from this survey is analyzed and presented in our acclaimed 2019-2020
CEO & Senior Executive Compensation Report for Private Companies, for which we are happy to provide you, as a survey respondent, this executive summary. While most data sources on CEO compensation focus on large public companies, our research brings real-world insight into the compensation of CEOs of the approximately 6 million private companies in the U.S., not just the S&P 500.
