Seekingalpha has published this piece, “Appraisal Rights: Nontraditional Shareholder Activism” by Aberdeen Asset Management. In this post, Aberdeen recounts the increase in appraisal in this decade, and focuses on how investors have sought to realize additional returns in the appraisal process. Aberdeen then highlights the risks, including legislative risks (which we have covered before) in noting that appraisal is “as much of a legal strategy as it is an investment strategy” and in noting that proper appraisal experience is important to evaluating any appraisal opportunities.
