Quick CheckQuick Check

Is a corporation owned by a single person a sole proprietorship? Why?

In a corporation the liability of the single shareholder would be limited to the assets of the corporation.

29

FinanceFinance School of Management School of Management

Separation of Ownership and ManagementSeparation of Ownership and Management

The owners of a firm delegate the responsibility of running the business to professional managers who may not own any shares.

Why? What? How?

30

FinanceFinance School of Management School of Management

Reasons for Separation of Ownership and Reasons for Separation of Ownership and ManagementManagement

The owner need not have both the talents of a manager and the financial resources.

The need to pool resources to achieve an efficient scale of production.

The need of owners to diversify their risk in an uncertain economic environment.

Allowing for savings in the costs of information gathering.

The “learning curve” or “going concern” effect favors the separated structure.

31

FinanceFinance School of Management School of Management

Separation of Ownership and ManagementSeparation of Ownership and Management

The corporate form is especially well suited to the separation of owners and managers because it allows relatively frequent changes in owners by share transfer without affecting the operations of the firm.

32

FinanceFinance School of Management School of Management

Conflicts of InterestConflicts of Interest The separated structure creates the potential for a

conflict of interest between the owners and the managers.

An agency problem exists where the principal has to entrust their interests to an agent who acts on their behalf.

Contractual arrangements, incentive schemes, and monitoring are used to control principal‒agency conflicts.

The social cost for resolving the conflict.

33

FinanceFinance School of Management School of Management

The Goal of ManagementThe Goal of Management

The difficulties of the goal of corporate management to serve the best interests of the shareholders.

To be feasible and effective, the right rule for the goal of management should be independent of who the owners are.

Shareholder-Shareholder-Wealth-Maximization RuleWealth-Maximization Rule

An illustration: the decision between a risky investment and a safe one

The role of well-functioning capital markets The rule depends only upon

– the firm’s production technology– market interest rates– market risk premiums– security prices

The rule does not depend upon the risk aversion or wealth of the owners.

35

Ambiguities of Profit-Maximization RuleAmbiguities of Profit-Maximization Rule Multi-periodic profits Uncertain future revenues or expenses An illustration

– Each of project A, B, and C require an initial outlay of $1 million.

– Project A will return $1.05 million one year from now and then over.

– Project B will last for two years, return nothing in the first year, and then $1.1 million two years from now.

– Project C will either pay $1.2 million or $0.9 million one year from now and then over.

A Well-Functioning Stock MarketA Well-Functioning Stock Market

Implementation of the management goal and market-price information

The existence of an efficient stock market allows the manager to substitute one set of external information which is relatively easy to obtain‒ namely stock prices‒for another set which is virtually impossible to obtain‒information about the shareholders’ wealth, preferences, and other investment opportunities.

Market Discipline: TakeoversMarket Discipline: Takeovers

The value of voting rights as a means of enforcement The mechanism of takeover (接管) for aligning

the incentives of managers with those of shareholders– The threat of a takeover and the subsequent

replacement of management provides a strong incentive for current managers (acting in their self-interest) to act in the interests of the firm’s current shareholders by maximizing market value.
