| Tiivistelmä: | The paper analyzes the incentives of large shareholders to monitor public corporations. The hypothesis is that a liquid stock market reduces large shareholders' incentives to monitor because it allows them to sell their stocks more easily. A liquid market also makes it less costly to hold larger stakes and easier to purchase additional shares. This fact is important if monitoring is costly; market liquidity mitigates the problem that small shareholders free ride on the effort of the large shareholder. Liquid stock markets are beneficial because they make corporate covernance more effective. |
