Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Einleitung: Entwicklungen in jüngerer Vergangenheit zeigen, dass deutsche Discount Broker ihre Produktpalette gezielt erweitern und ihren Kunden verstärkt Zugang zu Neuemissionen (IPOs) bieten, nicht zuletzt um ihre starke Marktposition in Europa zu wahren. So übernehmen die Broker Aufgaben im Neuemissionsgeschäft, sei es als Verkaufsagent oder als Mitglied in Übernahmekonsortien (Underwriter). Discount Broker betreten damit Neuland in einem Wirtschaftszweig, der bisher fast ausschließlich von Investmentbanken dominiert worden ist. Somit scheint sich eine neue Sorte von Investmentbanken zu entwickeln und die Vorherrschaft privilegierter Institutionen im Neuemissionsgeschäft aufzuweichen. Vor diesem Hintergrund möchte die vorliegende Arbeit auf das aufkommende Segment des Neuemissionsgeschäfts der führenden deutschen Discount Broker eingehen und objektiv beschreiben. Durchführung und Strategien im Neuemissionsgeschäft der Direct Broker werden im Detail betrachtet. Die Untersuchung beschränkt sich dabei auf die drei Marktführer im discount broking: ConSors Discount-Broker AG, Comdirect AG and Direkt Anlage Bank AG. Zwischen Anfang September und Ende November 2000 haben die drei Brokerhäuser ihren Einstieg ins Neuemissionsgeschäft offiziell angekündigt. ConSors entschied sich, eine eigene Investment Bank zu gründen ( do-it-yourself approach ) und Comdirect zieht Nutzen aus der Unterstützung durch die Mutter Commerzbank ( piggy-back approach ), aber erhebt Anspruch auf Führungsmandate bei Neuemissionen infolge des Aufbaus eines eigenen Geschäftsbereichs Investmentbanking. DAB beschloss hingegen strategische Partnerschaften einzugehen ( tie-up approach ), um die Chancen zu erhöhen, bei Neuemissionen berücksichtigt zu werden, ohne sich dabei jedoch selbst zur Investmentbank zu entwickeln. Die drei Discount Brokers treten üblicherweise als Verkaufsagenten auf, planen jedoch ehrgeizig in absehbarer Zeit Co-Underwriting- und Führungsmandate bei Neuemissionen zu erhalten; die Broker würden dann die Bezeichnung Investmentbank rechtfertigen. Ziel der Arbeit ist es, die Frage, ob zur Zeit tatsächlich eine neue Generation von Investmentbanken entsteht, hinreichend zu beantworten. Der Autor ist zuversichtlich, dass die Broker in Abhängigkeit von der jeweiligen Marktlage mittel- bis langfristig gute Chancen mit ihrem Neuemissionsgeschäft haben und sich als Nischen-Investmentbank etablieren [...]

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: This paper investigates the quality of financial analysts' earnings forecasts for companies which conducted initial public offerings (IPOs) during the years 1997 to 1999. The Neue Markt in Frankfurt offers a good setting to also study the development of a young market from the beginning of its operation onwards. I find support for the notion that initial returns and analysts' forecast accuracy are negatively related. I find that analysts' forecasts were by no means accurate. Mean forecast deviation, measured as percent deviation from actual earnings per share for the fiscal year, is 186.61 percent for the average broker. The sample is inhibited by serious availability problems, but all the same allows significant findings.

Download or read book Brokerage and Closure written by Ronald S. Burt and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-09-06 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social Capital, the advantage created by location in social structure, is a critical element in business strategy. Who has it, how it works, and how to develop it have become key questions as markets, organizations, and careers become more and more dependent on informal, discretionary relationships. The formal organization deals with accountability; Everything else flows through the informal: advice, coordination, cooperation friendship, gossip, knowledge, trust. Informal relations have always been with us, they have always mattered. What is new is the range of activities in which they now matter, and the emerging clarity we have about how they create advantage for certain people at the expense of others. This is done by brokerage and closure. Ronald S. Burt builds upon his celebrated work in this area to explore the nature of brokerage and closure. Brokerage is the activity of people who live at the intersection of social worlds, who have a vision advantage of seeing and developing good ideas, an advantage which can be seen in their compensation, recognition, and the responsibility they're entrusted with in comparison to their peers. Closure is the tightening of coordination in a closed network of people, and people who do this do well as a complement to brokers because of the trust and alignment they create. Brokerage and Closure explores how these elements work together to define social capital, showing how in the business world reputation has come to replace authority, pursued opportunity assignment, and reward has come to be associated with achieving competitive advantage in a social order of continuous disequilibrium.

Download or read book The Economic Function of a Stock Exchange written by Robert A. Schwartz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-21 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, exchanges on both sides of the Atlantic have been extensively reengineered, and their organizational structures have changed from non-profit, membership organizations to for-profit, demutualized organizations. Concurrently, new alternative trading systems have emerged and the traditional functions of broker/dealer firms have evolved. How have these changes affected the delivery of that mission? How has the efficiency of capital raising in the IPO market been impacted? These are among the key questions addressed in this book, titled after the Baruch College Conference, The Economic Function of a Stock Market. Featuring contributions from a panel of scholars, academicians, policymakers, and industry leaders, this volume examines current issues affecting market quality, including challenges in the marketplace, growth opportunities, and IPO capital raising in the global economy. The Zicklin School of Business Financial Markets Series presents the insights emerging from a sequence of conferences hosted by the Zicklin School at Baruch College for industry professionals, regulators, and scholars. Much more than historical documents, the transcripts from the conferences are edited for clarity, perspective and context; material and comments from subsequent interviews with the panelists and speakers are integrated for a complete thematic presentation. Each book is focused on a well delineated topic, but all deliver broader insights into the quality and efficiency of the U.S. equity markets and the dynamic forces changing them.
