We find that geographical relationships are related to lower pay–performance sensitivity, and that the correlation mainly exists in poor performance periods,suggesting that geographical relationships weaken the effectiveness of compensation contracts. We also find that geographical relationships can be substituted by external formal institutions.展开更多
