Wall Street’s average bonus for securities employees was $176,500 in 2023, according to State Comptroller DiNapoli’s annual estimate. Bonuses declined nearly 2% since 2022. Wall Street’s profits were up 1.8% in 2023, but firms have taken a more cautious approach to compensation and more employees have joined the securities industry, which accounts for the slight decline in the average bonus.

Comptroller DiNapoli’s office closely tracks the economic performance of Wall Street because of its significant impact on State and City tax revenues and the economy. Comptroller DiNapoli estimates that 1 in 11 jobs in the City are either directly or indirectly associated with the securities industry.
