Congratulations to Professors Roni Michaely, Silvina Rubio, and Irene Yi on receiving the Charles River Associates Award for their paper “Voting Rationales.” The paper examines the disclosed rationales behind institutional investors’ voting decisions and whether these disclosures affect board behavior. This award-winning study brings fresh clarity to one of corporate governance’s most important questions.
