Prompted by this article on how Republicans in the US want to block American shareholders from having a say on CEO pay, in this video I discuss how executives are blocking shareholder activism against executive remuneration, and how the equity-based financing system that prevails in Anglo-America won’t shift to a longer-term stakeholder-based financing system. This is because the issue of executive bonuses in the short term takes away attention from global long-term needs and planning.
