Complex companies adopt decentralization in order to realize all of the following benefits, except:. 1. delegation of control to lower levels of management, thus facilitating their training and development
improved awareness of, and response to, local conditions
2. reduced record-keeping
3. shorter elapsed time from problem identification to decision-making and implementation
4. no exceptions above

2. reduced record-keeping

Explanation:

The decentralization is the chain of the processes in which the proper process of all department is followed

Just like from top-level to middle level and then lower level

And, the inverse is lower level to middle level to top level.

The authority and responsibility are delegated to each level of management so that the day to day operations could be performed in a smooth, effective and efficient manner

For the complex companies who adopt decentralization, they have all the benefits like delegation, problem identification but do not reduce record keeping as it is not an easy task for every company

Hence, option 2 is correct
