The Compensation Correction

Investment cycles are predicted to last longer, exits will be tougher and firms will tighten their belts with new fund-raises coming further apart than before. Competition for a place at the table in firms will be greater, so expect compensation to begin cycling downward in this year and throughout 2009. We could very well see firms saying, in effect, this year’s bonus is that you get to keep your job.
