FS Credit Opportunities Corp. v. Saba Capital Master Fund, Ltd. · ¶12

To avoid activist-investor takeovers, closed-end funds generally incorporate in jurisdictions with laws that favor them.

The MCSAA limits voting rights for shareholders holding a disproportionate number of shares (like activist investors) unless other shareholders approve. See Md. Corp. & Assns.
