Around the world, policy makers, practitioners and academics debate how best to regulate shareholder activism. Using Australia as a case study, the book examines key issues raised by this debate. With a market structure and legal settings that are conducive to activism, Australia makes an ideal case study and provides a fresh comparative perspective on the regulatory debate about shareholder activism, which tends to be dominated by US-focused analysis and commentary. The book presents empirical evidence which reveals that Australian activism is a significant and multifaceted phenomenon, undertaken by different types of activists pursuing varying strategies and supported by a range of complementary market developments. The book uses this evidence to develop comparative insights and explore internationally topical issues, including: - activists' willingness to use interventionist governance rights; - the role of intermediaries such as proxy advisers in facilitating activism; - institutional investor stewardship; and - the risks of collective shareholder activism. This book provides an important comparative perspective on the topic of shareholder activism. It is an essential resource for policy makers, practitioners and academics interested in the regulatory implications of shareholder activism"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Stockholders $x Legal status, laws, etc. $z Australia. 650 0 $a Corporate governance $x Law and legislation $z Australia. 650 0 $a Corporation law $z Australia. 650 0 $a Stockholders $x Legal status, laws, etc. 650 0 $a Corporate governance $x Law and legislation. 650 7 $a Corporate governance $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00879652 650 7 $a Corporation law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00879728 650 7 $a Stockholders $x Legal status, laws, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01133686 651 7 $a Australia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204543 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781509952236 830 0 $a Contemporary studies in corporate law 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240619011206.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4FA66B7E2E0111EFA856D47D28ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
