Equity Research Pay: Go-Go Days Have Gone
Feb 21 2006
At the height of the dot com boom in 2000, star analysts such as Mary Meeker, head of internet research at Morgan Stanley, reportedly received bonuses nearing $20 million. Plenty of others received generous six figure packages.
Although recruiters say top rated analysts are still in line for multi-million dollar payouts, few deny that research isn’t quite as lucrative as it used to be.
In its pre-Christmas bonus report, search firm Armstrong International predicted managing directors in equity research would see pay 50 percent lower than in the 2000 boom, at between $785,000 and $1.3 million. More recently, one London search consultant reported that equity research bonuses were down 20 percent to 40 percent this year, compared to last.
Richard G. Lipstein, managing director at Boyden Executive Search in New York, says similarly experienced equity analysts can expect to receive “no less than” $300,000 to $400,000 in total compensation.
