Abstract
► It is in the interests of bank shareholders to risk shift. ► Bank shareholders design CEO compensation contracts with excessive risk taking incentives. ► With appropriate constraints on the compensation base and on the structure of compensation of bank CEOs, shareholders design an efficient contract. ► If the regulator can credibly commit to punish the CEOs of failed banks, shareholders design an efficient contract.
