Corporate Actions - A Concise Guide: An Introduction to Securities Events - Francis Groves
Corporate actions have been sidelined for too long and deserve to be treated with more respect. No type of investment security can be fully understood without knowledge of its corporate actions. They have implications for the sustainability of an investment's performance but repeatedly more beguiling investment preoccupations put them into the shade. Together with bank clearing and exchange settlement systems, the administration of corporate actions is one of the key co-operative functions tying our highly competitive global finance industry together.In the financial markets of the developed world the efficiency and 'risklessness' of corporate actions processing is entirely taken for granted. Yet the volume of complex corporate actions and a common sense estimate of the likelihood of mistakes occurring suggest that industry practitioners and investing clients may be deluding themselves.

In 1974, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act came to the Statute books, forcing US pension plan sponsors to segregate investment management and custody of the underlying assets. Today, service providers act for clients in many countries worldwide, handling assets across 100 countries of investment.
