Total Shareholder Value: Overview, Purpose, and Impact

Total Shareholder Value is the summation of dividends and capital appreciation delivered by a firm to its stakeholders.

The purpose of assessing TSV is to ensure that a company's strategic decisions ultimately translate into financial wellbeing, thereby driving investor confidence. A hike in Total Shareholder Value signals to the current as well as prospective shareholders that the organization is profitable and is likely to continue on the same trajectory.
