EFES NEWSLETTER - ABRIL 2014
Listed
and non-listed companies
It was sometimes told, based on the observation of specific
examples, that non-listed employee-owned companies could
have been more resilient than others through the financial
crisis. Employee-owned companies might have fared better.
This idea is even a cornerstone of the British Government's
policy to build a wide "employee-owned business sector"
in the UK. The picture is not the same when based on the
systematic comparison of all large listed
companies and all large non-listed employee-owned
companies in Europe. The graph hereafter illustrates this
through the case of employment in both types of companies
from 2006 to 2013. A detailed chapter about this can be
found in the European Survey of Employee Ownership in 2013.
