Brisk growth in executive pay meant that total CEO compensation measured 2.1% of total employee compensation at banking companies with less than $20 billion of assets in American Banker's pay survey.

This interactive table compares pay for bosses with pay for the rank and file.
| Company | Ticker | ROAA (%) | Assets ($B) | Total return (%) | Employee comp. ($M) | Number of employees | Average comp. per employee ($) | Chief executive | CEO comp. ($) | As a % of total employee comp. | As a multiple of average employee comp. |
