Produktbeschreibung
The concentrated ownership structure of Egyptian corporations makes protecting minority shareholders a major governance challenge. While controlling shareholders must have wide latitude in management in order for firms to thrive, investing controlling shareholders with power carries substantial dangers for minority shareholders.
