How Does Hailing Ran's Compensation Compare With Similar Sized Companies?

According to our data, Bank of Chongqing Co., Ltd. has a market capitalization of HK$15b, and paid its CEO total annual compensation worth CN¥436k over the year to December 2018. We think total compensation is more important but we note that the CEO salary is lower, at CN¥168k. Importantly, there may be performance hurdles relating to the non-salary component of the total compensation. As part of our analysis we looked at companies in the same jurisdiction, with market capitalizations of CN¥7.0b to CN¥22b. The median total CEO compensation was CN¥3.8m.

This would give shareholders a good impression of the company, since most similar size companies have to pay more, leaving less for shareholders. However, before we heap on the praise, we should delve deeper to understand business performance.
