Shareholders

Public shareholders rarely get involved in outsourcing decisions for publicly held companies. But for privately held companies, or where a publicly held company is largely controlled by one or a few shareholders, shareholders may have a keen interest in the Board of Directors’ policy on outsourcing. This interest concentrates on

  • the suitability of the existing corporate infrastructures to confront the economic and technological challenges of the future and
  • the ability of the enterprise to perform its core mission without additional borrowing or additional equity funding.
