Hah, this question is a real head-scratcher. I bet the answer is C - efficiency is key when you're just monitoring those investments, not actually engaging with the company. Gotta keep those numbers looking good!

Definitely C. Monitoring is all about keeping tabs on investments, not sharing ideas. That's what engagement is for - the fancy dinner meetings with the CEO.
