Koito Manufacturing Ltd.
內容大綱
Having acquired a 26% stake in Koito Manufacturing, a Japanese automotive parts supplier in the Toyota Group, T. Boone Pickens seeks a seat on Koito's board of directors. Koito's management resists, claiming Pickens is an unhelpful greenmailer, not a true long-term investor. The struggle between the two provides students with a chance to compare and contrast American and Japanese corporate governance practices. Debate centers on whether the Japanese system fosters efficiency or merely market power that reduces economic welfare.
