kaal:claim:1558614-014

The U.S. governance structure, built on periodic disclosure of performance data and stock price maximization, encourages risk taking because managers feel compelled to meet shareholder expectations at every reporting interval.

Source quote, verbatim
Risk taking in this context may be encour- aged by the perceived need to satisfy expectations of shareholders. Managers feel compelled to fulfill performance expectations whenev- er results are disclosed, be it quarterly, bi-annually, or annually.
