Investor Expectations in Value Based Management

Abstract

The multiplication of the invested capital is investors’ fundamental goal. They can achieve it, if they learn or develop themselves methods that would enable them to forecast changes on financial markets as accurately as possible. One of the most common elements of modelling expectations is referring to historical data. They are usually interpreted via technical analysis, which aims at forecasting future price trends on the basis of past market activity. The technical analysis model assumes that prices of securities change according to repeatable, observable cycles, which create geometric shapes when represented in charts.

  2. 2.

    Some economists point to varying approaches to a limited company in the Triad countries: USA, UK, Europe and Japan. It is possible to distinguish three concepts (see Jeżak 2002: 82):

    1. 1.

      Monistic, which stresses that enterprise as private property should be oriented on accomplishing its shareholders’ interests. This is a dominant approach in the USA, the UK, Australia and New Zealand.

    2. 2.

      Dualistic, which puts emphasise on shareholders’ interests, but also takes into account interests of the employees. It is the dominant approach in Germany and other continental European countries.

    3. 3.

      Pluralistic, in which the enterprise belongs to all interest groups, namely: employees, shareholders, the main creditor, main co-operators, suppliers and distributors, however the employees’ interest in the most important. This approach is most common in Japan.
