"JPMorgan Chase said it bought 11.5 million shares of Bear Stearns on the open market, in an effort to gain enough voting power to essentially guarantee its acquisition of the investment bank," The New York Times reported in an online article on Friday. This strategy of buying up shares of Bear Stearns stock must have been approved by JPMorgan’s Board of Directors in order for it to move forward. Given the shrewdness of this strategy for avoiding a proxy fight over the deal, it’s evident that the bank’s Directors have a considerable amount of expertise in the finer points of corporate governance.
