Sommario/riassunto |
|
Abstract In both Britain and the USA, the majority of the shares in quoted companies are owned by institutional shareholders such as pension funds and insurance companies. But, in most cases these major shareholders are ''passive'', that is they prefer not to become involved in the management of the companies in which they invest - unless there is a crisis. |
