Public Company CFOs Earn More than Their Private Company Counterparts

CFO Magazine reports that:

According to the Financial Executives Research Foundation’s 2010 financial executive compensation survey, public-company finance chiefs make an average base salary of $285,000, compared with $204,800 for their private-company counterparts. But when goodies like stock options and retirement benefits are thrown in, the average total compensation of public-company CFOs soars to $680,407, far outpacing the average total compensation of $367,311 for private-company finance chiefs.

It’ll be interesting to see what, if any, effect the Dodd-Frank Act has on these numbers going forward …
