Shareholder Activism
Lazard's review of shareholder activism compiles and analyzes data on key activism trends globally.
The report tracks shareholder activism campaigns by region, by capital deployment and by campaign objective, such as to sweeten or scuttle an existing deal, force a break-up or divestiture, or compel the sale of a company.
Analysts for Lazard’s Shareholder Advisory also monitor activist identity, how many board seats activists have secured in the most recent quarter and compare the data with prior quarters to put the data in its proper historical context.
