Description
This Element provides a comprehensive analysis of shareholder democracy and hedge-fund activism, exploring the disconnect between theoretical rhetoric and real-world outcomes. The author examines how activist hedge funds leverage their shareholdings to influence corporate decision-making and governance structures.
The book investigates the mechanisms through which activist investors exercise power, the effectiveness of their strategies, and the implications for corporate governance. It challenges traditional views of shareholder primacy and democratic principles in corporate management. Through empirical analysis and case studies, the work reveals how hedge-fund activism reshapes corporate behavior, shareholder relationships, and governance frameworks.
Part of Cambridge University Press’s Elements in Corporate Governance series, this focused study provides scholars, practitioners, and policymakers with critical insights into modern corporate activism and its impact on shareholder democracy.
