  • 1 ISSN 1179-4275 August 2011 NOT the 9 OCLOCK NEWS
    ISSN 1179-4275 August 2011 NOT THE 9 OCLOCK NEWS Members will no doubt have watched with morbid fascination as the British gutter press tactics have been dragged into the harsh light of day recently. The NZSA constantly reminds people that good governance is the keystone without which the whole corporate castle can come crashing down. Rupert Murdoch, an octogenarian Australian who became an American primarily for business purposes, and the rest of his motley bunch have provided a clear example of why this is all so important. Murdoch built his empire from Australia, and despite some debt issues in 1992, he has now accumulated a vast media empire. To put this in perspective, worldwide he controls over 70 major newspapers ( including the Times and Wall St Journal), two book publishers (HarperCollins is one), 3 music publishers, 30 major magazines, 17 TV studio/network conglomerates, over 80 major TV channels and over 30 major internet channels. There is much, much more as well. In short, pretty much anything you read, watch or hear will have his influence on it. He has also in the past, been quite successful at “avoidance.” In 1999 it was reported that despite earning over a billion pounds per annum for the previous 11 years, he had paid no net corporate tax. The Murdoch empire has two classes of shares. Only one of these has voting rights. The Murdoch family owns about 35% of News Corp, but nearly all are voting shares, effectively giving him absolute control. The huge 17 member board is dominated by Murdoch and 3 of his children.

  • View, Especially When Things Are Heading South
    ISSN 1179 -4275 February 2012 Trying our Patience A key reason for forming the NZSA ten years ago was to leverage the voice of small shareholders. That of course is still relevant today - perhaps more so since institutions have become larger shareholders in proportion to the total. That trend that will likely continue with the advent of KiwiSaver. However, the institution’s imperatives may be very different from individual’s. They may be less likely to take a long term view, especially when things are heading south. They also often take their lead on voting issues from external groups such as MSCI who took over the business of Risk Metrics, themselves listed in the USA. As a consequence there is a perception of a lack of critical analysis and independent thought by this group of large shareholders. Nowhere is this more evident than in matters of remuneration where it is rare to see institutions protesting that enough is enough. When it comes to director’s fees and executive pay, the influence of so-called independent advisor reports can also be critical to the outcome of any vote. Rises in fees and executive pay have far outstripped wage growth and company performance over the past couple of decades. Where we used to have differentials of 15 or 20 times average worker’s pay to total CEO pay, it has now reached nearly 100 times locally, and is much worse in some other countries, particularly the USA. Every time we have a huge rise the excuse is that some independent advisor report show XYZ are well behind their peers and need an increase.
