This book was released on 2006-03-29 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2003 in the subject Business economics - Banking, Stock Exchanges, Insurance, Accounting, grade: advanced, Warsaw University (Faculty of Economic Sciences), language: English, abstract: European integration will have a real influence on the shape of the financial market in Poland and in other former socialistic countries which undergone the transformation. To stop the tendency of weakening of Polish stock exchange it is important to recognize mechanisms influencing the decisions of companies about the public sale of shares. Decision of companies about the entry on the stock exchange is driven with the expectation that it will help them in the realization of the particular goals. There are many primary reasons for issuing shares, among other to gain the capital on investments, to acquire prestige, to increase sale etc. In Poland till now the entry on the stock exchange of some companies was a method of the privatization, however this process extinguishes. Going public companies will be owned by private businessmen. Hence, very important is to recognize the original mechanisms of initial public offering (IPO). The analysis of IPO effects, enforced with the use of panel models points, that thanks to funds from going public the company realize investment projects and use resources in compliance with declared destination, i.e. on investments, and not on the debts repayment. Public companies do not change their previous capital structure, the debts after the entry on the stock exchange grow to the level from before IPO. Listing on the stock exchange raises the size of the company, but lowers the rate of its growth and decreases the profitability. Findings from research confirm hypotheses that companies go public from the opportunistic motives and then by the way they realize investment programmes.
Download or read book Privatization in Eastern Europe written by Roman Frydman and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Eastern Europe privatization is now a mass phenomenon. The authors propose a model of it by means of an illustration from the example of Poland, which envisages the free provision of shares in formerly public undertakings to employees and consumers, and the provision of corporate finance from foreign intermediaries. One danger that emerges is that of bureaucratization. On the broader canvas, mass privatization implies the reform of the whole system, the creation of a suitable economic infrastructure for a market economy and the institutions of corporate governance. The authors point out the need for a delicate balance between evolution - which may be too slow - and design - which brings the risk of more government involvement than it is able to manage. A chapter originating as a European Bank working paper explores the banking implications of setting up a totally new financial sector with interlocking classes of assets. The economic effects merge into politics as the role of the state is investigated. Teachers and graduate students of public/private sector economies, East European affairs; advisers to bankers or commercial companies with Eastern European interests.

Download or read book IPO Behavior in GCC Countries written by Abdullah Al-Hassan and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2007 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper documents the phenomenon of underpricing initial public offerings (IPOs) for 47 firms that went public between 2001 and 2006 in the equity markets of the six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. The average initial abnormal returns of 290 percent exceed those found in the existing literature for both developed and emerging markets IPOs. Although the IPOs' returns over the one-year horizon beat the market index benchmark, they present negative abnormal returns once initial returns are excluded, which is consistent with findings in other industrial and emerging markets. The empirical models reject the hypothesis that the IPOs' performance is driven by the common independent variables employed in the literature. On the contrary, in the case of the GCC, country- and industry-specific characteristics, in addition to the timing of the offers, play key roles in explaining the abnormal returns of IPOs. This paper's empirical findings support the hypothesis that investors initially tend to be over-optimistic about the performance of IPOs, but grow more pessimistic over time
