When Friedman argued for shareholder theory, corporate share buybacks were still illegal. It was not until 1982 that the rule regarding public companies … was changed and the activity was permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) (Reda, 2018). That is significant because Friedman qualified his statement with the words “without deception or fraud.” The reason corporate share buybacks were illegal prior to 1982 was precisely because it was viewed … they simply authorize more share buybacks.

Implementation is especially important because it refers to the process of monitoring and evaluating policy. Policy and management should be part and parcel, according to the authors as “there is no policy without implementation” and there is no awareness of the success of a policy without evaluation (Briggs……
