This is the first in-depth comparative and empirical analysis of shareholder stewardship, revealing the previously unknown complexities of this global movement. It highlights the role of institutional investors and other shareholders, examining how they use their formal and informal power to influence companies. The book includes an in-depth chapter on every jurisdiction which has adopted a stewardship code and an analysis of stewardship in the world's two largest economies which have yet to adopt a code. Several comparative chapters draw on the rich body of jurisdiction-specific analyses, to analyze stewardship comparatively from multiple interdisciplinary perspectives. Ultimately, this book provides a cutting-edge and comprehensive understanding of shareholder stewardship which challenges existing theories and informs many of the most important debates in comparative corporate law and governance.

'Institutional investors face growing pressure to assume 'stewardship' responsibilities through engagement with portfolio companies; 'stewardship codes' have proliferated. This superbly imagined and edited volume demonstrates that the contours of 'stewardship' vary widely throughout the world, depending on the persistence of controlling owners and different government efforts to deploy 'stewardship' in pursuit of various economic and political objectives. The book is essential reading for those seeking to understand the evolving pattern of global corporate governance.' Jeffrey N. Gordon, Richard Paul Richman Professor of Law, Columbia Law School
