Restoring The Promise Of The Shareholder Derivative Suit, John Matheson
Restoring The Promise Of The Shareholder Derivative Suit, John Matheson
Georgia Law Review
The most fundamental and perplexing question in all of corporate law is how to ensure that the board of directors and corporate officers faithfully serve the interests of the corporation and its owners, the shareholders. A primary means of answering that challenge has been the implication and enforcement of directors' and officers' fiduciary duties to the corporation by means of the shareholder derivative action. Almost from its inception, however, the derivative suit has been subject to jaundiced treatment by companies, legislatures, and courts. The result is a costly, tortured derivative suit process unrelated to the merits of the underlying claims …
The Enduring Legacy Of Modern Efficient Market Theory After Halliburton V. John, Mark Klock
The Enduring Legacy Of Modern Efficient Market Theory After Halliburton V. John, Mark Klock
Georgia Law Review
In 1988 the U.S. Supreme Court approved the fraud on the market theory for securities trading in an efficient market thus enabling securities class action plaintiffs to establish their required reliance element of the case through a rebuttable presumption. Basic v. Levinson held that efficient markets incorporate publicly disseminated information and investors who purchased or sold securities in an efficient market therefore relied on any publicly disseminated misinformation. For more than a quarter century since Basic, the efficient market theory has sustained a barrage of assaults from commentators who object to the use of economic theory in legal decision making …

Institutional Investing When Shareholders Are Not Supreme, Christopher Greczy, Jessica S. Jeffers, David K. Musto, Anne M. Tucker

Institutional investors, with trillions of dollars in assets under management, hold increasingly important stakes in public companies and fund individual retirement for many Americans, making institutional investors' behaviors and preferences paramount determinants of capital allocation. In this paper, we examine high fiduciary duty institutions' (HFDIs') response to decreased profit maximization pressure as measured by the effect of constituency statutes on HFDI investment. We ask this question, in part, to anticipate HFDIs' response to alternative purpose firms, like benefit corporations. Only with access to institutional investors' capital can alternative purpose firms gain economic significance to rival the purely for-profit corporation. In …
Locked In: The Competitive Disadvantage Of Citizen Shareholders, Anne M. Tucker
Locked In: The Competitive Disadvantage Of Citizen Shareholders, Anne M. Tucker
Scholarly Works
Indirect investors—especially mutual fund investors—are often low-dollar, low-incentive, rationally apathetic investors facing enormous information asymmetries and collective action problems. These traits raise difficult corporate governance questions about how indirect investors exercise or should exercise their right to vote in fund elections, obtain fund-related information, and pursue litigation against the fund. These questions are all the more important in light of how many indirect investors own mutual funds through employer-sponsored defined contribution retirement plans.
John Morley and Quinn Curtis’s 2010 article, Taking Exit Rights Seriously, offers a clear answer to this problem. They assert that the best solution for all mutual …
Cyber Risks: Emerging Risk Management Concerns For Financial Institutions, Kristin N. Johnson
Cyber Risks: Emerging Risk Management Concerns For Financial Institutions, Kristin N. Johnson
Georgia Law Review
Rumors posit that, within the last two years, hackers caused outages, disrupting service for the two largest securities exchanges in the world-the NASDAQ and the New York Stock Exchange.
Disappointingly, regulatory reform is often backward-looking. While regulators toil to implement rules to prevent the last crisis from reocurring, new and more perilous threats evade detection. With increasing frequency, cyberattacks threaten critical infrastructure resources such as nuclear centrifuges, electrical grids, and air defense systems. Cyberattacks pose a burgeoning and underexplored universe of emerging concerns impacting areas as diverse as big-box retail stores, casual-dining chains, online retail auctions, and national security. Even …
