| Abstract: | This paper contributes to the literature on organizational form and performance by examining the impact of two sets of variables that have not been examined previously: measures of environmental uncertainty and alternative forms of controlling separation of ownership from control. Measures suggested by agency theory, such as conventional ownership proxies, the proportion of non-executive board members and Fama and Jensen's concept of separation of decision management from decision control are used in the analysis. |
