Ownership dispersion and listing rules in companies large and small: A reply

Author

Listed:
  • Les Hannah
  • James Foreman-Peck
Abstract
The contrast between the findings of the present authors and Cheffins, Chambers and Koustas is explained by their addressing different sizes of firms. Chandler's view of the relative incidence of the divorce of ownership from control among large firms remains unsupported by any quantitative evidence.
