Abstract
Policy-makers in the UK have, since the early 1970s at least, sought to encourage institutional investors (IIs) to engage with investee companies. This policy has remained remarkably consistent considering the shifting challenges confronting both corporate governance and wider society, as well as the significant changes in the structure of institutional investment over the last 50 years. If anything, the demands made of shareholders have only increased, with the UK’s post-global financial crisis Stewardship Code variously expecting large shareholders to: steer companies towards ‘long-term returns to shareholders’; ‘promote the long term success of companies in such a way that the ultimate providers of capital also prosper’; and, most recently, ‘create long-term value for clients and beneficiaries leading to sustainable benefits for the economy, the environment and society’.
