Abstract

[fre] Ces vingt dernières années, les investisseurs institutionnels sont devenus des acteurs majeurs de l’économie mondiale par l’importance de leurs opérations sur les marchés financiers. Ils ont multiplié les prises de participation dans les grandes entreprises et sont en mesure de contrôler, de manière parfois décisive, la gestion de celles-ci. Les auteurs analysent l’impact des investisseurs anglo-saxons sur la gouvernance des entreprises. Selon eux, il existe un lien étroit entre les règles juridiques qui encadrent ces acteurs aux États-Unis et les principes de gouvernance imposés par ces mêmes acteurs aux entreprises dont ils sont actionnaires. Les auteurs montrent, qu’au-delà de leur diversité, les investisseurs institutionnels américains poursuivent des objectifs communs. . Classification JEL : K22, K29, G23, G30 [eng] Institutional Investors and Corporate Governance . The last twenty years institutional investors became major actors on financial markets. They hold shares of many important firms and so have a strong influence on their management. Authors analyse this influence on the corporate governance in the USA. They suppose that there exist a link between pension industry rules and principles of governance that institutional investors enjoin on firms. Moreover, despite their diversity, institutional investors have common objectives. . JEL classifications : K22, K29, G23, G30
