CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. - Despite an overall decrease in the total return paid by banks and thrifts of -23.7% in 2007, CEOs of those same institutions saw an increase in compensation of 4.8% over the same period, according to analysis released by SNL Financial. Not everyone saw an increase, however. CEOs at banks of $10 billion in assets or larger, where many reported significant declines in ROAE and ROAA, averaged a 4.3% decrease in total compensation during 2007. The data was released as part of the SNL Executive Compensation Review for Banks and Thrifts. For info: www.SNL.com.(c) 2008 The Credit Union Journal and SourceMedia, Inc.
