承销商声誉、信息不对称和新股抑价:基于板块的新发现 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
我们采用2004年到201 1年上市的1,025个新股样本检验了承销商声誉和新股抑价程度之间的联系.我们发现,虽然新股抑价程度和承销商声誉表面上存在负相关,但是一旦控制了和板块相关、和年份相关的固定效应以后,这一负相关的显著性明显减弱甚至消失.我们还发现,主板新股抑价程度随着承销商声誉的提高而增加,中小板和创业板新股抑价程度则随着承销商声誉的提高而降低.对于相同的承销商声誉,中小板新股抑价程度的降低幅度似乎要大于创业板新股.我们认为这些结果和承销商声誉假说是不一致的,承销商没有起到降低信息不对称成本的作用. 相似文献

This paper investigates whether the relationship between investment banks and their affiliated funds helps the funds deliver superior performance due to the information advantage or whether it costs the funds due to the conflict of interest. Using firms with class‐action lawsuits, I examine whether underwriter‐affiliated funds can avoid a potential economic loss from the underwriting clients’ fraudulent activities. Consistent with the information advantage hypothesis, I find that affiliated funds reduce their stakes in underwritten firms before the disclosure of the firms’ misconduct. Additionally, I find that significant selling activity by the affiliated funds can predict the outcome of a potential lawsuit. 相似文献

This study examines the ability of underwriters to properly value unfamiliar firms prior to issuance. I use a sample of IPOs in biotechnology, a relatively new but thriving industry. The first American biotech IPO was in 1980. Through the end of 2004, almost 500 biotech IPOs have appeared in the public market. I find that biotechnology differs from other industries in the attributes of individual firms valued by the market. In particular, R&D and the quality of human capital (e.g., star scientists on the staff) are much more important for biotech valuations. I find also that underwriters appeared not to appreciate this distinction for early biotech IPOs; in those cases, first-day market returns were predictable by firm attributes not used by underwriters to establish IPO issue prices. I also find that underwriters have learned over time, albeit slowly. Over the 20+ years of biotech history, IPO issue prices have become more dependent on firm attributes unique to biotechs while first-day market returns have become less predictable. 相似文献

This paper investigates the correlation between pre‐initial public offering (pre‐IPO) earnings management and underwriter reputation for issuers with different ownership structures in China. We document a significantly inverse relationship between underwriter reputation and pre‐IPO earnings management for non‐state‐owned enterprises (NSOE) issuers only, while no significant association is found for state‐owned enterprises (SOE) issuers. We also find that for the NSOE new issue market, underwriter reputation is positively correlated with issuer post‐IPO performance indicating that prestigious underwriters can incrementally improve issuer post‐IPO performance. 相似文献

This paper studies the relationships between underwriter reputation, underwriter spread, and IPO underpricing. We consider the information content of underwriter spread and find that it conveys information pertinent to IPO quality. Because underwriter spread is endogenous, underpricing and underwriter spread are jointly determined in a simultaneous equation system. Also, we examine the IPO market for evidence of segmentation, and our results suggest some market segmentation. Underwriter spread impacts initial underpricing for a group of medium-reputation underwriters, while underpricing affects underwriter spread for groups of low- and high-reputation underwriters. Consequently, high-risk IPOs may not be priced the same way as low-risk IPOs. We attribute this finding to regulation, competition, and/or market segmentation. 相似文献

“Limits of Arbitrage” theories hypothesize that the marginal investor in a particular asset market is a specialized arbitrageur rather than a diversified representative investor. We examine the mortgage‐backed securities (MBS) market in this light. We show that the risk of homeowner prepayment, which is a wash in the aggregate, is priced in the MBS market. The covariance of prepayment risk with aggregate wealth implies the wrong sign to match the observed prices of prepayment risk. The price of risk is better explained by a kernel based on MBS market‐wide specific risk, consistent with the specialized arbitrageur hypothesis. 相似文献

We examine ex‐dividend date trading of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) using a sample of 1,043 dividends over the period 1988 to 1995. ADR dividends are often subject to foreign withholding taxes, creating incentives for certain investors to avoid the distribution. ADRs exhibit negative abnormal ex‐dividend day returns, and their prices behave consistently with their related withholding taxes. Abnormal trading volume for taxable issues exceeds 130 percent and 300 percent of normal volume on the cum‐ and ex‐dates, respectively. Abnormal volume is an increasing function of foreign withholding tax rates and decreasing function of transactions costs. This abnormal ex‐date trading activity is consistent with tax‐motivated trading. 相似文献

This study examines the effect of transaction costs on the time series behavior of stock returns over a period surrounding
the April 1989 changes in tax rates on securities transactions and capital gains in Japan. We find significant decreases in
estimates of the first-order autocorrelation in returns for Japanese stocks listed in Japan, but no changes for Japanese stocks
dually listed in the United States as American Depository Receipts (ADRs), which were not subject to the tax law change. We
also find lower price basis between the ADRs and their underlying Japanese stocks. These results are consistent with the hypothesis
that a reduction in transaction costs improves the efficiency of the price discovery process.

The choice of cultivation techniques is a key determinant ofagricultural productivity and has important consequences forincome growth and poverty reduction in developing countries.Household data from Nicaragua are used to show that the choiceof cultivation technique depends on farmers' tenure status evenwhen techniques are observable and contractible. In particular,tree crops are less likely to be grown on rented than on owner-cultivatedplots. Further evidence indicates that the result follows fromlandlords' inability or unwillingness to commit to long-termtenancy contracts rather than from agency costs due to riskaversion or limited liability. 相似文献

高质量审计能够降低信息不对称、约束管理层的机会主义行为,而权益融资和债务融资对信息不对称的敏感性是不同的,这两类资财提供者对外部审计的依赖程度也不同,因此,审计质量可能会对公司融资方式的选择产生影响。本文利用我国2008-2012年沪深两市A股上市公司及其审计师数据,分别以行业专长和事务所规模作为审计师质量的替代变量,并用控制函数方法解决审计师的自选择问题,考察了审计师质量对上市公司融资方式选择的影响。结果发现,选择高质量审计师的公司,更倾向于进行权益融资。进一步研究发现,在信息不对称问题更为严重的小规模公司中,审计师质量对权益融资的促进作用更为明显。 相似文献

审计任期与审计质量:来自中国证券市场的经验证据 总被引:48,自引:6,他引:48
本文以中国证券市场上2000年至2002年期间获得标准无保留审计意见的上市公司为样本,使用经过一定调整后的截面Jones模型估计出的公司操纵性应计利润的绝对值作为审计质量的衡量指标,考察了会计师事务所审计任期与审计质量之间的关系。研究发现,在控制了事务所变更、事务所特征、行业成长性、公司规模、经营业绩、资产负债率、上市年龄以及样本所在年度后,审计任期与公司操纵性应计利润的绝对值呈正U型关系,即审计任期与审计质量呈倒U型关系。进一步分析发现,当审计任期小于一定年份(约6年)时,审计任期的增加对审计质量具有正面影响,而当审计任期超过一定年份(约6年)时,审计任期的增加对审计质量具有负面影响。 相似文献

In 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission enacted the Securities Offering Reform (Reform), which relaxes “gun‐jumping” restrictions, thereby allowing firms to more freely disclose information before equity offerings. We examine the effect of the Reform on voluntary disclosure behavior before equity offerings and the associated economic consequences. We find that firms provide significantly more preoffering disclosures after the Reform. Further, we find that these preoffering disclosures are associated with a decrease in information asymmetry and a reduction in the cost of raising equity capital. Our findings not only inform the debate on the market effect of the Reform, but also speak to the literature on the relation between voluntary disclosure and information asymmetry by examining the effect of quasi‐exogenous changes in voluntary disclosure on information asymmetry, and thus a firm's cost of capital. 相似文献

审计市场结构与审计质量:来自中国证券市场的经验证据 总被引:11,自引:1,他引:11
本文以我国证券市场2004年~2005年的上市公司为研究样本,使用调整后的KS模型估计出的公司操纵性应计利润的绝对值作为审计质量的衡量指标,考察了审计市场结构和审计质量的关系。研究发现在控制了影响审计质量的相关变量之后,市场结构与审计质量存在以下关系:审计市场集中度与审计质量成正相关关系;市场的进入退出壁垒越高,审计质量越高;但审计师的行业专长不但没有提高审计质量,反而在一定程度上降低了审计质量;审计市场的强地域性与审计质量也没有明显的相关关系。 相似文献

盈余管理、盈余管理属性与审计意见——基于中国证券市场的经验证据 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
过去的文献一直把盈余管理看成同质风险,而本文把盈余管理按属性划分为决策有用性盈余管理和机会主义盈余管理,采用1999年至2008年A股上市公司作为研究样本,研究了审计师能否对不同属性的盈余管理做出差别反应,并表现在审计意见决策上。研究结果发现,在同样进行了盈余管理的样本中,审计师能够区分不同属性的盈余管理,对高风险的机会主义盈余管理应计额出具非标意见的概率大于低风险的决策有用性盈余管理的应计额。 相似文献

Dimovski and Brooks (J Intern Financ Mark Inst Money 14:267–280, 2004b) examined 358 Australian industrial and mining company initial public offerings (IPOs) from 1994 to 1999 to report that more
money was left on the table by IPOs that engaged underwriters than those that did not engage underwriters. Loughran and Ritter
(Autumn 5–37, 2004) suggested that the negative relation between underwriter reputation and underpricing has reversed in the 1990s with U.S.
IPOs. The main purpose of this paper is to study the relationship between underwriter reputation and underpricing in terms
of Australian IPO data. In this paper, we use 380 Australian industrial company IPOs from 1994 to 2004 to perform the empirical
study. Our results suggest that more prestigious underwriters are associated with a higher level of underpricing. Other variables
that are found to be significant in explaining the level of IPO underpricing are market sentiment, share options, total capital
raised and underwriter options. 相似文献

We trace the impact of formative experiences on portfolio choice. Plausibly exogenous variation in workers’ exposure to a depression allows us to identify the effects and a new estimation approach makes addressing wealth and income effects possible. We find that adversely affected workers are less likely to invest in risky assets. This result is robust to a number of control variables and it holds for individuals whose income, employment, and wealth were unaffected. The effects travel through social networks: individuals whose neighbors and family members experienced adverse circumstances also avoid risky investments. 相似文献

Business Groups and Tunneling: Evidence from Private Securities Offerings by Korean Chaebols 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
We examine whether equity‐linked private securities offerings are used as a mechanism for tunneling among firms that belong to a Korean chaebol. We find that chaebol issuers involved in intragroup deals set the offering prices to benefit their controlling shareholders. We also find that chaebol issuers (member acquirers) realize an 8.8% (5.8%) higher (lower) announcement return than do other types of issuers (acquirers) if they sell private securities at a premium to other member firms, and if the controlling shareholders receive positive net gains from equity ownership in issuers and acquirers. These results are consistent with tunneling within business groups. 相似文献

The Role of Institutional Investors in Voting: Evidence from the Securities Lending Market
下载免费PDF全文

This paper investigates voting preferences of institutional investors using the unique setting of the securities lending market. Investors restrict lendable supply and/or recall loaned shares prior to the proxy record date to exercise voting rights. Recall is higher for investors with greater incentives to monitor, for firms with poor performance or weak governance, and for proposals where returns to governance are likely higher. At the subsequent vote, recall is associated with less support for management and more support for shareholder proposals. Our results indicate that institutions value their vote and use the proxy process to affect corporate governance. 相似文献

Using a sample of seasoned equity offerings (SEOs), this paper examines the association between the choice of financial intermediary
and earnings management. We contend that with more stringent standards for certification and intense monitoring, highly prestigious
underwriters restrict firms’ incentives for earnings management to protect their reputation and to avoid potential litigation
risks, while firms with greater incentives for earnings management avoid strict monitoring by choosing low-quality underwriters.
Consistent with our predictions, we find an inverse association between underwriter quality and issuers’ earnings management.
In addition, we find that underwriter quality is positively related to SEOs’ post-issue performance, even after controlling
for the effect of earnings management. We also find that firms with low-underwriter prestige and high levels of earnings management
under-perform the most. However, the effect of underwriter choice on post-issue performance does not last long.
