| danlan | Why III? |
| mtcfa | Because only a portion of the board members (ie 1/3) are elected each year. This may provide better continuity than the alternative, which is to nominate 100% of the board members every year. |
| leo6fin | how is a staggered board an anti-takeover device? |
| vi2009 | leo6fin: anti-takeover device because any takeover attempts who want to get his own people into the board will need to wait for 2 years minimal ... staggered (see mtcfa) |
| schweitzdm | thanks vi2009 for that explanation. |
| khalifa92 | and cant take over the whole board at once |
I passed! I did not get a chance to tell you before the exam - but your site was excellent. I will definitely take it next year for Level II.
