Executives at traditional asset management firms can expect to see their 2019 year-end bonuses either remain flat or decline by 5% from the previous year, according to a report from compensation consultant Johnson Associates.

Johnson Associates’ third-quarter report added that professionals within the hedge fund and private equity industries, meanwhile, are projected to see an increase as much as 5% in their year-end payouts…

Mr. Johnson added that he expects “selective layoffs and less hiring to continue as firms buckle down on expense management,” which will contribute to “a downward impact on compensation in 2020.”
