NACD Executive Summary: Preparing the Board for Shareholder Activism
The National Association of Corporate Directors (NACD) recently released Director Essentials: Preparing the Board for Shareholder Activism and provides an executive summary of the report for free download.
As year-round shareholder activism becomes the new norm in the American boardroom, directors are called upon to prepare for and respond to any possible activist challenges, the NACD reports. The new publication is designed to equip directors with the knowledge and tools they need to address this challenge.
This report includes information on trends in activist campaigns, types of investors and their methods of influence, and the board’s role in preparing for and responding to an activist campaign.
The full publication is available exclusively to NACD members, but the executive summary is freely available.
