Agency conflicts between investment banks and corporate clients in merger and acquisition transactions: causes and remedies
Article Abstract:
The tremendous influence that investment banks have gained over mergers and acquisitions over the years is coming under increasing criticism. The large amounts of money that banks earn from these transactions and the high failure rate of new acquisitions are casting doubt on the role of these financial institutions as intermediaries and advisors. In fact, many are being blamed for providing unreliable advice and are being sued. Four solutions are suggested for minimizing the agency problems between investment banks and their corporate clients.
