TCI, The Children’s Investment Fund, is a London-based hedge fund. The company donates a significant portion of the proceeds to a charitable foundation. In 2005, TCI acquired a large stake in the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, Deutsche Börse. The fight with management disrupted a planned merger and led to the CEO resigning.

What role does shareholder activism play in corporate governance? Is the investment business and charitable giving mixed up?
