Description

Abstract: Shareholders may challenge deals that seem to benefit “insiders” at their expense — especially if the deal’s projected results fall short, acquisition synergies fail to materialize or insolvency becomes likely — under the assumption that decision makers aren’t acting in the best interests of the company and its shareholders. This article explains that a fairness opinion from an experienced, independent valuation advisor can help avoid this situation.
