Why go public in the first place if you don't want active investors? I find it highly unlikely investors wanting to get involved in a company's success would be a bad thing more often than not.


I believe the are rules that often force companies to go public (e.g. the 500 investor rule) even if the CEO wants to retain private ownership.
