Chief Executive Officer Sabina Menschel and Managing Director & Head of Complex Investigations and Asset Search Practices Nicholas Peck spoke with Megan Poinski at Forbes about how activist investor trends are shaping companies’ futures. During their interview, Sabina and Nick explored what the current activist landscape looks like, why more activists are pushing for board nominations, and how CEOs and Boards should respond to activist attacks.
According to Sabina, a savvy CEO should be prepared to face activists. She emphasizes, “If something happens, understanding who you’re up against, what their tactics are, what their M.O. is, [and] how successful or not they’ve been in the past,” are important to understand.
