Abstract

[fre] Un gestionnaire financier de fonds de retraite est confronté à l’alternative suivante lorsqu’il détient des actions peu performantes : les vendre ou les conserver et chercher à influer sur les managers des entreprises concernées. Plusieurs raisons expliquent pourquoi les fonds de retraite américains ont adopté la seconde attitude. Une telle stratégie a participé au développement d’une pratique appelée activisme des actionnaires. C’est ce phénomène sur lequel se focalise cet article. À cette fin, l’auteur décrit les manifestations des différents types d’activismes existants (proxy targeting et performance targeting). Puis, il traite plus particulièrement des effets de long terme de l’activisme coordonné par le Conseil des investisseurs institutionnels (CII) sur l’évolution des rentabilités des actions des entreprises ciblées. . Classification JEL : G23, G31, G34 [eng] The Long Run Impact of Coordinated Activism Initiated by the Council of the Institutional Investors (CII) on Returns of the Targeted Firms Shares . A pension funds money manager faces the following alternative when it holds under-performing shares : either it sells them, or it keeps them and seeks to influence the managers of the firms involved. Several reasons can explain why American pension funds followed the second way. Such a strategy contribute to the development of a practice called shareholder activism. This article focuses particularly on this phenomenon. For this purpose, author describes the various existing practices of activism (proxy targeting and performance targeting). Then, his attention goes on the second type of activism. He deals principally with the long run impact of coordinated activism initiated by the Council of the Institutional Investors (CII) on the evolution of returns of the targeted firms shares. .
