Summary:

Institutional Investors and Corporate Governance, Carolyn Kay Brancato's insightful and thought-provoking new book, outlines ways in which corporations and institutional investors can work together to achieve corporate market value goals. The author describes in detail the optimal methods for managers to measure and enhance firm value while observing the rights and opinions of institutional shareholders. A fresh approach is given to many related topics, including what institutional investors expect from corporations, and what corporations can be expected to give back; clearly explained specific ways in which, working together, corporations and investors can focus on and achieve superior long-term value appreciation; which types of investors companies should look for, and how to attract them; and strategies and tactics that will increase the wealth of the enterprise and its investors. Based in part on her well-documented research for the U.S. Competitiveness Policy Council and The Conference Board, Institutional Investors and Corporate Governance is Carolyn Kay Brancato's response to investors and corporate executives looking for solutions to their cooperative impasse.
