Abstract
This thesis comprehensively covers the research made regarding the effects of ownership structure on company’s risk-taking profile, since it has been shown to be an important factor regarding the decision making and strategic policies of companies. This paper will divide the ownership structure into two different segments to better understand the individual effects that different factors have regarding the risk-taking of firms. And show how different studies measure the risk-taking of companies with different preferences. The current research has not come to a conclusion on the effects of ownership structure and different studies have shown varying results. Because of this I want to explore the different findings and try to better understand the different underlying factors that play a part in the decision-making process of different groups and how they are affected by the change of their equity owned.Description
