Share class structure and the efficiency of corporate takeover : experimental evidence by Lee, Pei Xuan, Siow, Zu Er, S, Roshini

“…Our experimental results demonstrated that it was less likely for an inefficient Raider to successfully takeover in an one-share-one-vote share structure. This result is in line with the theoretical predicted outcomes. On the other hand, in the case of an efficient Raider, our results were not in line with the theoretical model for the case of an efficient Raider. …”
