In the third quarter of 2010, SRZ commissioned mergermarket to interview 50 senior corporate executives and activist investors regarding their experience with shareholder activism and their expectations for the upcoming 12 months. The result is a report that highlights emerging trends in shareholder activism and examines the new challenges facing investors and executives in the current market.
Respondents were asked questions on key sectors for activism, catalysts for going active, the most effective defensive tactics a company can use, which rules will have the greatest impact on the volume of activism and much more.
Business transactions partner Marc Weingarten and former SRZ attorney David E. Rosewater were instrumental in providing commentary and insight throughout this report.
