Research Abstract

This study empirically analyzes interests of minority shareholders under corporate control transactions in which conflicts of interests among shareholders are potentially large. Since, legal protections of minority shareholders are relatively weak in Japan compared to the US and the EU, the issues analyzed in this study are quite important for sound development of both equity market and market for corporate control in Japan. My empirical results reveals that large portion of tender offers in Japan have coercive nature. Although new Corporate Law and relevant laws and rules improve protection of minority shareholders, there is still large room for improvements.
