Matt Schwartz spoke to Financier Worldwide for its roundtable on “Shareholder Disputes.” Matt noted that in spite of increased media coverage, shareholder disputes have actually declined slightly over the past year. Still, he pointed to certain trends that could increase shareholder disputes going forward, including an expected increase in regulatory enforcement from the Biden administration, criticisms of the use of SPACs, and lawsuits concerning ESG policies and agendas. Matt also discussed legal and practical steps corporations can take to reduce the likelihood of shareholder disputes arising or lessen their impact if they do arise.
