The policy framework that led to the financial crisis in Asia is analyzed. Better outcomes could have resulted if a more formal decision theoretic framework based on adequate research was applied to the Asian situation. The failure to use the best available models and information may be attributed to decision makers' focus on the statistics on unemployment or gross domestic product rather than on data on social indicators. The significant role played by misguided ideas as well as by special interests in the implementation of misguided policies in the Asian crisis are discussed.

Using a sample of S & P 500 firms, we find that golden parachutes are associated with concentrated external ownership, less concentrated internal ownership, and non-Delaware incorporation. We find little support that concentrated external owners use golden parachutes as credible commitment devices. The general multivariate results support the incentive alignment hypothesis, and reaffirm the view that golden parachutes are a mechanism used to align managerial and shareholder interests when there is a separation between ownership and control.

This Article shows that in cases where shareholders subject to partial takeover bids lack information about the tendering decisions of their peers, such shareholders might accept detrimental tender offers. This outcome could be improved by way of a slight change in the rules of the game. We suggest a simple reordering of the tender offer and proxy contest procedures in hostile partial bids that would ameliorate the problem to a significant extent. The decisionmaking problem faced by shareholders in partial bids could be substantially alleviated by the following procedure: first, the tendering period should close prior to the shareholder vote on the bid; second, the final tally of the tender should be made public; and finally, shareholders should vote on the bid. Shareholders would thus ...
