Corporate behavior and governance has emerged as a campaign issue for US presidential candidates. Hillary Clinton gave a speech at the end of July decrying “quarterly capitalism” that chases short-term growth at the expense of sustainable business development, as well as addressing the exponential growth of CEO pay, and the need for a minimum-wage increase.
美国证券与交易委员会（SEC）从8月初开始实施一项规则，要求上市公司披露员工与CEO之间的薪酬差距。公司行为和治理已成为美国总统选战的一个话题。希拉里·克林顿在7月底的演讲中谴责“季度资本主义”（quarterly capitalism）追求短期增长而牺牲可持续商业发展，并批评了CEO薪酬的指数式增长，指出有必要提高最低工资。
