Say there are 35 reasonable people aboard a Clapham omnibus. Being key workers — nurses, police, teachers and so on — frontline and notf middle management (not a very likely contingency and Clapham these days, but let’s say) their incomes are not spectacular: fairly tightly distributed around an average of £40,000.
Imagine you are a management consultant tasked with increasing the average pay on that bus.
Of source, It is simple: just ask a tech titan to hop on board. That will raise it average to £60 million at a stroke.
This might seem preposterous, but it is precisely the approach being taken to pay equality in investment banks.
