Chaim on Anticompetitive Corporate Governance
Danielle A. Chaim (Bar-Ilan University - Faculty of Law) has posted Anticompetitive Corporate Governance on SSRN. Here is the abstract: Corporate law and antitrust have long run on separate tracks. Corporate law looks inward, governing the allocation of authority within the firm. Antitrust looks outward, policing rivalry in the marketplace. This Article argues that the rise of large, diversified institutional investors has made that separation increasingly untenable.

2. First, CVS Health would keep its specialty pharmacy business. These pharmacies dispense expensive, often complex medications. They account for 40+% of the pharmacy market by revenue. They're a major site of anticompetitive practices that squeeze independent pharmacies.

6. For more than a decade, I've been working with independent pharmacies and my colleagues here at ILSR to expose the anticompetitive structures and practices that have driven so many local pharmacies out of business, and calling for a breakup of CVS.

3. Second, CVS says the ties between the two new companies will be "preserved in commercial agreements." In other words, separate ownership, but keep the arrangements that create conflicts of interest and enable anticompetitive practices. A real (government-led) breakup would sever those ties.

We did!
Lots of ISPs also bundle basic cable with their streaming services. It took us hours of talking to our ISP to get them to not send us basic cable.
>>The government has bo business<<
Unless it's anticompetitive behavior, which I think one could argue.
