Fractionated Ownership
✤ Ownership in the modern corporation differs from traditional notion of ownership:

✤ Legal: legal title holder (trustee) and beneficial owners (beneficiaries)
✤ Functional: different responsibilities
✤ Personal: separate personality
✤ The concepts of governance discount and governance premium
