Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article primarily discusses role of self regulation of stock exchanges in a demutualized environment. It has been argued that there are some genuine concerns about conflict of interest between the regulatory role of the stock exchange and its business interest as a corporate entity. Congruent with the business prudence of any corporate entity, it has been argued that argue that the effectiveness of self regulation is limited to the extent to which the exchange can internalize the cost of regulation. The conflict of interest underlying the activities of listing, supervision of market operation and business capacity planning has been exemplified and discussed in this article. Finally an attempt has been made to resolve the problem of conflict of interest in a generic manner.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper deals with two, potentially intertwined issues of stock exchange governance. First, we demonstrate in a static global games model that investment propensity will vary across different types of organizational forms and competition scenarios. Exchanges organized as mutuals are particularly ill-suited compared to trading venues owned by outside investors, when investments result in potential rents for only few of their members. These circumstances are likely when exchanges invest in related business activities such as derivatives trading, post-trading and software development services. Second, we explain in a dynamic overlapping-generations framework the rationale for the recent wave of demutualization, which describes the process of converting a mutual, not-for-profit stock exchange into an outsider-owned, commercial firm. Our model shows that a mutual exchange, facing competition from a for-profit, outsider-owned platform, can only survive by adopting a similar governance structure. Our paper will also provide empirical evidence for the two main predictions derived from the models. For that purpose, we employ bivariate probit regressions to simultaneously estimate the propensity to invest and to demutualize, thereby accounting for potential endogeneity issues. We show that competitive pressure indeed increases the likelihood of demutualization and that outsider-owned exchanges have a stronger propensity to invest into related business activities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demutualization is a term used to describe the transition of a securities exchange from a mutual association of exchange members operating on a not-for-profit basis to a limited liability, for-profit company accountable to shareholders. Demutualization in its many forms has become a widespread phenomenon--one with increasing appeal in emerging market countries. Demutualization challenges the traditional approach to supervision of securities exchanges and raises issues regarding their role in the regulation and supervision of capital markets.

Download or read book Contemporary Nature of Stock Exchange from the Perspective of Demutualization Process written by Alina Rydzewska and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a part of the demutualization process, stock exchanges are transformed from a traditional membership (mutual) structure into an entrepreneurial structure. Changes in the legal and organizational structure take place and they diversify their activities in order to meet the market needs. Statistical data confirm that two thirds of stock exchanges are of for-profit type and as many as 40% are listed exchanges. But we cannot conclude that stock exchanges, after the demutualization process and going public, operate more efficiently than the stock exchanges not subjected to these processes. On the other hand, analyzing the structure of the products on stock exchanges, it may be noticed that most of the exchanges have a diversified range of services. However, it should be emphasized that the activity of stock exchanges is partly seen as a public good even if they are managed by private people. But the efficiency increase of stock exchanges does not necessarily translate into the quality increase of their socio-economic functions and short-term pursuit for profits may pose a threat to the functioning of the economy and society.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the association between changes in the operating structure of stock exchanges in recent decades, from mutually owned (broker/dealer-owned) to demutualized (for-profit, shareholder-owned), and stock liquidity and transparency of listed firms. We focus on de facto demutualized exchanges, i.e., exchanges that went public and became owned by multiple shareholders following demutualization. For these exchanges, we find that liquidity improves post-demutualization, consistent with prior literature in finance. Next, we examine whether these improvements in liquidity are attributable to changes in the quality of listed firms and regulatory oversight, or whether they are more likely due to other causes (e.g., an increase in technological spending by the exchange). Our results indicate that reporting quality of listed firms declines post-demutualization, supporting the second explanation. In supplemental analyses focusing on new listings and trading suspensions, we find that the changes in reporting quality are driven primarily by already listed firms and not by new listings. Overall, our results point to declining reporting quality of listed firms after demutualization, which highlights the concern of market participants, academics, and regulators that the demutualization of stock exchanges may lead to a decline in regulatory oversight of listed firms.
Download or read book Conflicts of Interest in Self regulation written by John W. Carson and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2003 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author examines the implications of demutualization of financial exchanges for their roles as self-regulatory organizations. Many regulators and exchanges believe that conflicts of interest increase when exchanges convert to for-profit businesses. Demutualization also changes the nature of an exchange's regulatory role as broker-dealers' ownership interests are reduced. These factors are leading to reduced regulatory roles for exchanges in many jurisdictions. The resulting changes have significant implications for regulation of financial markets, especially as exchanges are the only self-regulating organizations (SROs) in most countries. Major changes in the role of exchanges require a rethinking of the allocation of regulatory functions and the role of self-regulation, as well as stronger mechanisms to mitigate conflicts of interest. Carson looks at the views of both exchanges and regulators on these issues in Asian, European, and North American jurisdictions where major exchanges have converted to for-profit businesses. He finds that views on the conflicts of interest faced by demutualized exchanges vary widely. In addition, the tools and processes used by exchanges and regulators to manage conflicts also differ significantly across jurisdictions. The author concludes that new and greater conflicts result from demutualization and canvasses the regulatory responses in the jurisdictions examined.
Download or read book Handbook of Research on Stock Market Globalization written by Geoffrey Poitras and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stock market globalization process has produced historic changes in the structure of stock markets, the effects of which are evident throughout the world. Despite these transformations, there are relatively few sources examining the connections between the globalization process currently underway and previous periods of stock market globalization. This seminal volume fills that gap. The chapters in the first section look to previous globalization periods through the lens of the corporate economy, valuing equities and managed funds. Further chapters address current issues such as the social closure of the exchange, demutualization and mergers and acquisitions as well as cross-listing and liquidity. The final chapters consider the regulatory challenges posed by stock market globalization. These include the pressures on regulators from rent-seeking stock market participants, the demise of exchange trading floors and Latin America's stock market. Timely, multi-disciplinary and practical, this informative Handbook will be an essential reference for students and scholars of economics, finance and accounting, finance professionals and security market regulators.
Download or read book Stock Market Liquidity in Chile written by Mr.Luis Brandao-Marques and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2016-11-16 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chile has a large but relatively illiquid stock market. Global factors such as global risk appetite and monetary policy in advanced economies are key cyclical determinants of liquidity in Chilean equities. Evidence from a cross-section of emerging markets suggests strong protection of minority shareholders can help improve stock market liquitidity. Currently, illiquid in Chilean may have to pay 31⁄2 percent more as cost of equity. Corporate governance should be improved, namely through the adoption of a stewardship code.
