2016 Salary Survey Report Available
The National Association for Business Economics (NABE) conducted the first salary survey of its members in 1964. Every two years since—with the exception of 1966 and 1970— NABE has surveyed its members about their salaries and other occupational details. In April and May 2016, NABE, in conjunction with The NABE Foundation (the charitable arm of NABE), conducted the current edition of the NABE Salary Survey. Questionnaires were sent via email to 1,798 standard and group members, and to NABE Fellows; participants responded online. A total of 438 members responded with information on their compensation, for a response rate of 24%.
The median base salary of NABE members as of April 2016 was $131,221—a 0.9 percent increase from 2014. The mean (average) base salary was $152,798—an increase of 5.3 percent from that reported in 2014.
