- W3121883014 abstract "This paper examines the motivations of offeror directors when engaging in corporate acquisitions. Despite the importance of the subject for policy formulation, it has received little attention in the Law Reviews. In contrast, the related but opposite subject of target company directors' duties has been extensively discussed. Such neglect can be explained by the legal system's failure to adequately appreciate the issue of managerial motivation. The fiduciary obligations imposed by general law, while prohibiting fraud, misrepresentation, and to some extent self dealing (through the twin requirements of loyalty and good faith), imposes no positive obligations. Statutory law has altered the scene to a small degree only. Under the disclosure philosophy, prospectus-type information must be provided in certain circumstances. Legislation also has strengthened the prohibition against self dealing. More specific legislation, dealing with tender offers, makes the provision of information continuous and timely, while providing certain guarantees of fair treatment for all target shareholders. Similar obligations are also imposed on the offeror. None of this, however, gets to the root of what is known as the agency problem (e.g., the problem resulting from the separation of control from ownership). Based on a study of these offeror director motivations with respect to corporate acquisitions, and empirical evidence of the results of acquisitions, this paper argues that greater restraints should be imposed on the number of acquisitions taking place. The point made is that what is needed in all jurisdictions is not more acquisitions (mergers), but acquisitions that increase net gains." @default.
