Overview

Shareholder Activism Handbook is the single most comprehensive guide on all matters relating to enforcing shareholders' rights.

As shareholder activism becomes a more integral part of investing, the law continues to respond accordingly. Legislators and the courts have established new guidelines for, and limits to, shareholders' efforts in this regard. Although various publications or articles have addressed certain aspects of shareholder activism, such as proxy fights and securities litigation, few publications have attempted to assimilate the relevant information into a single resource. And no publication presents this information from the perspective of the shareholder. Until now!.

Logically organized into six essential parts, Shareholder Activism Handbook delivers everything you need to represent the rights of shareholders as they attempt to influence corporate direction.
