Bondholder representation

Long-term debt securities or bonds issued to public investors often experience a collective-action problem. Bondholders cannot operate as a unified group when individual bondholder investments are fairly small reducing the monetary incentive to initiate or cooperate. Also what is worse is that the identity of bondholders persistently varies as public bonds are frequently traded.

Even though the accession in institutional bondholding in terms of the emergence of large activist, hedge and private-equity funds and the mobility of these funds into bond investing has aided to tone down the collective-action problem. However these funds time and again have conflicts of interest with other bondholders. Moreover, the recent downfall of many of these major funds clearly conveys that the collective-action problem could only upsurge in the time to come (Schwarcz and Sergi, 2007).
