Shareholder activism emerged in the 1970s and 1980s as a tool to drive the process of price formation, improve corporate governance and defend minority shareholder interests. Today, in a market environment characterized by a surge in the number of passive investors and a reduction in the diversity of research and market participants, the importance of shareholder activism may be greater than ever.
Corporate engagement and shareholder activism has become increasingly crucial within the context of modern financial markets.
With over 20 years of experience and having hosted over 200 conferences, seminars and webcasts on a variety of financial topics, DealFlow Events is gearing up to host the upcoming Activist Investor Conference 2024 on March 21, 2024 in New York City. Now in its 14th year, the Activist Investor Conference delivers an invaluable forum for discussion of governance-related issues by savvy finance professionals seeking to improve the fortunes of the companies in which they’ve invested.
