Chapter 1 in Unquoted Companies, 1984, pp 1-25 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The research reported in this book has sought the answer to three questions about unquoted companies in the United Kingdom today: 1. What are the particular characteristics of unquoted companies and how are these characteristics shaped by the legal and institutional framework within which they operate? 2. What is the aggregate contribution of unquoted companies to the UK economy? 3. How do unquoted companies compare with their better-known quoted counterparts, especially in respect of their efficiency?
