Morgan Stanley CEO Gets $41.7M in 2007

Posted: 2008-02-15 18:26:23

NEW YORK (AP) - Morgan Stanley on Friday said Chief Executive John Mack received compensation valued at about $41.7 million in 2007, a regulatory filing showed, a year when the investment bank's profit plunged 57 percent.

Mack, one of the highest paid bankers on Wall Street, did not receive a bonus in 2007 because of the company's losses due to the subprime crisis. Morgan Stanley lost $3.59 billion during the fourth-quarter because of risky bets on mortgage-backed securities.

None of the executive committee members at Bear Stearns Cos., the fifth-biggest securities firm, are taking bonuses after a $1.9 billion write-down during the fourth quarter. Meanwhile, Merrill Lynch & Co. CEO Stan O'Neal was ousted from his job and didn't receive any 2007 bonus.

However, Mack did receive an $800,000 salary, stock awards valued at $40.2 million, and $399,153 of other compensation, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday. Among the perks was $355,000 spent on his personal use of the corporate jet.

Morgan Stanley reported in December that full-year profit fell to $3.21 billion from $7.47 billion a year earlier. The company is about two weeks from completing its first quarter of 2008, and more write-offs from the subprime crisis is expected.

Morgan Stanley, which has lost 20 percent of its market value this year, dropped 30 cents to $42.32 in composite trading on the New York Stock Exchange at 4 p.m.
