Download or read book Cross Listing Waves written by Sergei Sarkissian and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a 57-year global foreign listing sample, we identify cross-listing waves at the host market, home market, and industry levels. Waves in host markets are often due to cross-listing waves in proximate home markets. Consistent with gravity model implications and economic synergy arguments of cross-listing decisions, cross-listing waves in a given host country coincide with the outperformance of host and proximate home country's economies and financial markets. The valuation gains from listings associated with cross-listing waves are transitory, supporting the market timing component in these decisions. Our results provide novel evidence of non-monotonic market development across countries and over time.

Book excerpt: We investigate the effects of market fragmentation and information flows in the case of stocks cross-listed on markets in Central Europe and London. First, we test for co-movement, interaction and error correction behavior between the local and London markets. Our results suggest that strong interactions exist between these markets, with the London market being slightly more important than the local one. The two prices of cross-listed stocks are cointegrated and pricing errors are corrected over a few days. These interactions suggest partial fragmentation. Second, we extend an earlier model to examine the impact of foreign listing on the variance of local returns. The focus of previous studies has concentrated almost exclusively on the return of cross-listed securities. The variance of returns has remained mostly unnoticed, even though some studies noted an increase of variance after the cross-listing. In our model, we introduce a new factor that influences return variance: tighter interaction with foreign markets as a consequence of cross-listing. Estimation results lend support to our model.
Download or read book International Finance written by H. Kent Baker and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-01-17 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the current state of affairs and tools available in the study of international finance is increasingly important as few areas in finance can be divorced completely from international issues. International Finance reflects the new diversity of interest in international finance by bringing together a set of chapters that summarizes and synthesizes developments to date in the many and varied areas that are now viewed as having international content. The book attempts to differentiate between what is known, what is believed, and what is still being debated about international finance. The survey nature of this book involves tradeoffs that inevitably had to be made in the process given the vast footprint that constitutes international finance. No single book can cover everything. This book, however, tries to maintain a balance between the micro and macro aspects of international finance. Although each chapter is self-contained, the chapters form a logical whole that follows a logical sequence. The book is organized into five broad categories of interest: (1) exchange rates and risk management, (2) international financial markets and institutions, (3) international investing, (4) international financial management, and (5) special topics. The chapters cover market integration, financial crisis, and the links between financial markets and development in some detail as they relate to these areas. In each instance, the contributors to this book discuss developments in the field to date and explain the importance of each area to finance as a field of study. Consequently, the strategic focus of the book is both broad and narrow, depending on the reader's needs. The entire book provides a broad picture of the current state of international finance, but a reader with more focused interests will find individual chapters illuminating on specific topics.

Book excerpt: This paper investigates the underlying determinants of home bias using a comprehensive sample of U.S. investor holdings of foreign stocks. We document that U.S. cross-listings are economically important, as U.S. ownership in a foreign firm roughly doubles upon cross-listing in the United States. We explore the cross-sectional variation in this "cross-listing effect" and show that increases in U.S. investment are largest in firms from weak accounting backgrounds and in firms that are otherwise informationally opaque, indicating that U.S. investors value the improvements in disclosure associated with cross-listing. We confirm that relative equity valuations rise for cross-listed stocks, and provide evidence suggesting that valuation increases are due in part to increases in U.S. shareholder demand and in part to the fact that the equities become more attractive to non-U.S. shareholders.

Book excerpt: "We use a comprehensive 1997 survey to examine U.S. investors ̐preferences for foreign equities. We document a variety of firm characteristics that can influence U.S. investment, but the most important determinant is whether the stock is cross-listed on a U.S. exchange. Our selection bias-corrected estimates imply that firms that cross-list can increase their U.S. holdings by 8 to 11 percent of their market capitalization, roughly doubling the amount held without cross-listing. All else equal, we find that firms experience smaller increases in U.S. shareholdings upon cross-listing if they are Canadian, from English-speaking countries, are members of the MSCI World index, or had higher quality accounting standards prior to cross-listing. We argue that these findings suggest that improvements in information production explain U.S. investors ̐attraction to foreign stocks that cross-list in the United States"--Federal Reserve Board web site.
Download or read book Adrs Analysts and Accuracy written by Mark H. Lang and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates the relation between cross listing in the U.S., with its resulting commitment to increased disclosure, and the information environment of non-U.S. firms. We find that firms that cross-list on U.S. exchanges have greater analyst coverage and increased forecast accuracy relative to firms that are not cross listed. A time-series analysis shows that the change in analyst coverage and forecast accuracy occurs around cross listing. We also document that firms that have more analyst coverage and higher forecast accuracy have a higher valuation. Further, the change in firm value around cross listing is correlated with changes in the firm's information environment. Our findings support the hypothesis that cross-listed firms have better information environments, which are associated with higher market valuations.

Download or read book Cross Border Listings Capital Controls and U S Equity Flows to Emerging Markets written by Ms.Hali J. Edison and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2003-12-01 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We analyze capital flows to emerging markets in a framework that incorporates two quantitative measures of financial integration, the intensity of capital controls and the extent of cross border listings, while controlling for traditional global (push) and country specific (pull) factors. Two important results emerge. First, the cross listing of an emerging market firm on a U.S. exchange is an important but short lived capital flows event, suggesting that the cross listed stock is in effect a new security that U.S. investors quickly bring into their portfolios. Second, the effect of financial liberalization on capital flows is more nuanced than is suggested by event studies: A reduction in capital controls results in increased inflows only when the controls are binding. Among the standard push and pull factors, global factors are important-slack U.S. economic activity is associated with increased flows to emerging markets-and U.S. investors appear to chase expected, but not past, returns.
Download or read book Cross Listing and Subsequent Delisting in Foreign Markets written by Leyuan You and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employing a sample of stocks cross listed and subsequently delisted from foreign markets, we examine the consequences of delisting in terms of price, risk, volume, and liquidity. We also provide a direct comparison between the firm's performance due to foreign cross listing and its subsequent delisting. We find a positive cross listing and a negative delisting effect on stock price, both of which dissipate in the long run. No significant changes in the market risk are found for either case. Foreign cross listing and delisting are associated with increasing and decreasing long term trading volume respectively. Further, the bonding hypothesis fails to explain the listing premium and the delisting loss.
Download or read book Does the Choice of Listing Level Matter Evidence from Foreign Firms Cross listing in the United States written by Hicham Hadni and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study makes an important contribution to the economic and finance literature on value analysis of foreign firms cross-listing in the United States. Doidge, Karolyi and Stulz (2003) show that, at the end of 1997, foreign firms with shares cross-listed in U.S. financial markets had Tobin's q ratios significantly higher than those of firms from the same country that were not listed in the United States. I consider in a detailed value analysis the three main levels of American Depositary Receipt (ADR) listings and analyze the impact of upgrading the listing level on firms' values. I extend the work of Doidge, Karolyi and Stulz (2003) to control for listing levels as well as additional country and firm characteristics. I find significant evidence that cross-listing firms experience (i) an average increase in value of 26 percent when they upgrade their listing level from level I to level II, and (ii) an average increase in value of 38 percent when they upgrade their listing level from level II and level III.

Download or read book Does International Cross Listing Improve the Information Environment written by Nuno Fernandes and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We investigate whether cross-listing in the U.S. affects the information environment for non-U.S. stocks. Our findings suggest cross-listing has an asymmetric impact on stock price informativeness around the world, as measured by firm-specific stock return variation. Cross-listing improves price informativeness for developed market firms. For firms in emerging markets, however, cross-listing decreases price informativeness. We also find that price informativeness increases the most for firms in countries with the greatest investor protection. The added analyst coverage associated with cross-listing likely explains the findings in emerging markets, rather than changes in liquidity, ownership, or accounting quality. Our results indicate that the added analyst coverage fosters the production of marketwide information, rather than firm-specific information.
