PROTOCOL: Does executive compensation predict publicly traded firms’ financial performance or inaccurate financial reporting?

This is the protocol for a Campbell review. The objectives are as follows: One goal of

this systematic review is to identify whether incentive terms in CEO contracts predict

firm financial performance over time; a second goal is to identify whether incentive

terms in CEO contracts predict subsequent inaccurate financial reporting as manifest

in restatement of accounting data due to errors or other distortions in reporting

financial information.
