Abstract :
Officials and executives from various businesses generally believe that the breadth of the stockholders' base has significant market interest. Although researchers have also agreed on the basis that shareholders are one of the key determinants of company decisions, few studies have been conducted on this variable. In this study, it was found that the increase of the stockholders base, unlike the developed countries, in Iran, is not in the interest of the companies. The results suggest that raising the shareholder base will increase the risk of conflict between investors and controlling shareholders. In addition, the findings show that this increase has a negative and significant relationship with the risk behavior and value of the company, and has positive and significant benefits with the dividend. In addition, the results of this study indicate that With increasing agency conflicts, the possibility of expropriating individuals outside of the organization will increase by the internal members of the company.
