1. LATAR BELAKANG
Since Berle and Means (1932:11-12) investigated the structure of corporate ownership of public agency problem is a central issue in financial literature. With the increasing amount of corporate and business area, then the owner can not manage his own company directly so that is what triggered the emergence of agency problems. In relation to ownership of the agency there were two problems, namely agency problems between management and shareholders (Jensen and Meckling, 1976) and the agency problem between majority shareholders and minority shareholders (Shleifer and Vishny, 1997). The first agency problem occurs when the dispersed stock ownership, so that individual shareholders can not control the management. As a result the company can be run as desired management itself. The second agency problem occurs when there is a majority shareholder (ownership concentration), so there is a majority shareholder who can control the management or even become part of management itself. As a result, the majority shareholder has absolute control over minority shareholders, so that majority shareholders can perform actions that benefit themselves, but are likely detrimental to minority shareholders.
