Summary
Inclusive Capital Partners, a San Francisco-based investment firm, has acquired a 0.83% interest in Bayer AG for investment purposes. The firm believes that Bayer, as a leader in the global agribusiness industry, is well-positioned to develop and proliferate technology that addresses humanity's challenge of boosting food supply while decreasing environmental impact. Inclusive suggests that Bayer explore de-conglomerating, primarily by spinning off Monsanto, and settling its Roundup-related litigation to create shareholder value. They are also looking to bring in a new CEO as early as their next annual meeting in the spring.
