  • Companies Still Prioritize Compliance with the TSE over Consideration for Shareholders Interest


Companies Still Prioritize Compliance with the TSE over Consideration for Shareholders Interest

By Aki Matsumoto

  • Given the fact that disclosure alone failed to raise stock valuations over three years, it can be assumed that many companies still prioritize compliance with TSE over consideration for shareholders.
  • Many companies have only recently begun incorporating capital allocation, cost of capital, and capital profitability into disclosures, so it’ll take a little while longer for the results to become apparent.
  • Without serious showdown with investors driven by exercising voting rights, it’s doubtful whether genuine management reform can be achieved. Without a sense of urgency in management, change will not occur.
