SpaceX has adopted corporate governance policies that will erode typical shareholder protections.
SpaceX's IPO will use supervoting shares to let Musk retain over 50% of voting power post-listing.
KEY POINTS
- Shareholders will be forced into private arbitration and cannot bring class actions or sue in court.
- SpaceX's move to Texas leverages new state laws that further erode traditional investor protections.
- Only Musk, his family, and selected entities can own supervoting Class B shares, not the public.
- Shareholder proposals now require at least $1 million or 3% of SpaceX stock to force a vote.
