The Financial Times offers a neat applet that interactively notes how the top CEOs will fare given the new $500,000 pay cap. You can see CEOs shrink before your very eyes! The biggest losers seems to be Jamie Dimon, of JPMorgan Chase, and Lloyd Blankfein, of Goldman Sachs, who will see their total pay drop more than 95 percent each from their heady 2008 levels. AIG CEO Edward Liddy will lose almost 90 percent. However, Citi CEO Vikram Pandit will lose very little, as he took in just over $500,000 in 2008, in cash and stock awards. Bank of America's Ken Lewis will see a 67 percent drop.
