This chapter explores shareholder activism carried out by “wolf packs.” Just as a blockholder with a sizable percentage of the corporation’s equity can significantly influence a firm’s governance, a wolf pack is a group of investors that attacks a target corporation in tandem under the leadership of a single, sophisticated activist, collectively acquiring enough equity to form a de facto block. The chapter then looks at the formation of wolf packs and conflicting theories that attempt to explain their behavior. It also focuses on their ability to acquire considerable power in a corporation, considering the challenges that presents to legal regimes, particularly in proxy contests and other change-of-control transactions. Changes of control, especially in cases of hostile takeovers, are controversial because they often necessitate a consideration of strategic objectives different from those of the target company’s board prior to the takeover.

Subject. This article deals with the issues relating to improving integrated reporting in terms of dovetailing strategic objectives with capital changes. Objectives. The article aims to develop a system of indicators for disclosure of capital types in integrated reporting of electricity generating companies, as well as recommendations aimed at implementing the fundamental concepts and guiding principles of integrated reporting. Methods. For the study, we used the methods of analysis and synthesis, comparison, generalization, and abstraction. As a case study, we conduct a comparative analysis of the disclosure of six types of capital by the largest electricity generating companies, namely PAO Inter RAO, AO Rosenergoatom and PAO RusHydro. Results. The article formulates proposals for disclosure of capital information to address such a lack of accountability as a contradiction to the principle of coherence. It proposes a system of indicators (core and additional) for disclosure of six types of capital by electricity generating companies. Conclusions. A significant reporting problem is the lack of correlation between key strategic objectives and capital changes. The formulated recommendations for disclosure of capital information can help solve this problem, and increase the attractiveness of the integrated report for capital providers.
