This e-book is aimed at exploring further many of the issues and research questions initially raised by the DTI report which studied the effects of financial institutions and investor behavior on management practice. Insights into the way asset managers apply the ISC Principles designed to improve corporate governance standards are presented, as well as an analysis of the interplay between voice and exit strategies and how they influence corporate control in the UK's sports industry. How do investors and investees search to find a suitable venture capital partner? How do investors allocate significant decision rights to portfolio company managers? Authors also examine the role of organizational design in venture capital (VC) firms' investment strategies, and going-private transactions via leveraged buyouts (LBOs) as a response to deficient governance structures.
