Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the effects of venture capitalist participation in IPOs in China and find that VC-backed firms are more underpriced than non-VC firms. Both VC-backed and non-VC-backed IPOs experience long-run underperformance; however, VC-backed IPOs perform significantly better. The higher level of underpricing and cost of going public for the VC-backed firms are consistent with the monitoring role of the VC. Finally, the fact that VC reputation is associated with lower underpricing is consistent with the reputational capital theory, which asserts that reputable VCs use their expertise and experience to minimize underpricing in order to preserve their reputational capital.

Download or read book Venture Capital and the Corporate Governance of Chinese Listed Companies written by Lin Zhang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-10-20 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: State-controlled listed companies have always dominated Chinese stock markets. As a result of the rampant scandals related to them, there have been voluminous academic efforts to explore their corporate governance, underpinned by agency costs. However, these studies have yet to examine the phenomenon from the perspective of venture capital and adaptive efficiency. During the last ten years, despite China’s remarkable progress in the development of its venture capital market, its domestic venture capital has been marginalized by American competitors. Given the different performance between them, the author contends that the corporate governance system of Chinese state-controlled listed companies has hampered the performance of the institutional factors which are responsible for the prosperity of American venture capital in Chinese venture capital markets. With the practice of American venture capital as the mirror, he empirically demonstrates that Chinese domestic venture capital lacks the four factors related to the success of their American counterparts: large and independent funding, application of incentive mechanisms, efficient exit channels, and a high risk tolerance level. More importantly, these defects as a whole are closely linked to the corporate governance of state-controlled listed companies. Considering the potential negative consequences on economic and social development, the author identifies policy reforms underway to harmonize agency costs and adaptive efficiency.
Download or read book Venture Capital Law in China written by Lin Lin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-18 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China's venture capital market is not just the world's largest and fastest developing market, it also has the unique distinction of being engineered through heavy governmental intervention. This book breaks new ground by examining and testing established legal theories regarding the law of venture capital through the lens of the Chinese venture capital market. Using a hand-collected dataset of venture capital agreements, interviews with practitioners, and Chinese court judgements, it provides a comprehensive and insightful analysis of the Chinese venture capital market from the legal perspective. Topics covered include the roles of law and governmental intervention in developing the market, the state of investor protection, unique contractual developments and exits of venture capital investments. By providing an in-depth comparative analysis against the American venture capital market, it provides critical context and makes the Chinese venture market accessible. It is an invaluable resource for venture capital scholars, policymakers and practitioners.
Download or read book Venture Capitalist Involvement and the Long Run Performance of Ipos written by Terry L. Campbell and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The long-run underperformance of initial public offerings (IPOs) is a well documented anomaly. Recent research has shown that venture-backed IPOs, generally defined, marginally outperform non venture-backed IPOs and posits that venture capitalists (VCs) may add value through a variety of methods. We investigate the relation between the degree of involvement by VCs and the long-run performance of IPOs. Overall, while we do not find significant differences in long-run performance between VC-backed and non VC-backed firms, we find a positive relation between the degree of VC involvement and long-run performance. Specifically, we find a positive relationship between the proportion of monitoring directors (VC and independent outside directors) and long-run performance, evidence consistent with VCs shaping the board to increase monitoring. Further, it appears that VC-backed firms are able to reduce asymmetric information through attracting analysts and large shareholders thus improving long-run performance. Our results suggest that the long-run underperformance of IPOs may be driven in part by those firms with none or low degrees of VC involvement.

Download or read book Venture Capital Performance in China written by Qing (Sophie) Wang and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the determinants of venture capital (VC) performance in China. We focus on the impact of VC reputation, political connections, and managing partner/founder's experience on the performance of domestic and foreign VC investments. After controlling for VC age, portfolio firm age, syndicate size, VC industry competition, and a number of other factors, we find little correlation between VC reputation and investment performance in the Chinese market. In contrast, we find that the institutional characteristics such as political connections of VC firms and managing partner/founder's prior experience as managers and investment bankers are crucial to domestic VC success, but these have little impact on foreign VC performance. In particular, if a domestic VC firm is politically connected, or a managing partner/founder has more management experience or has previously worked as an investment banker, a portfolio firm is more likely to have an IPO exit through the Chinese mainland stock markets, and these VCs are also likely to speed up a portfolio firm's exit through IPOs in China.
Download or read book Venture Capital Investment and the Post IPO Performance of Entrepreneurial Firms written by Di Guo and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the effects of venture capital (VC) investment on the performance (measured by return on assets, return on equity, and Tobin's Q) and growth (measured by growth of total sales and total number of employees) of entrepreneurial firms in the People's Republic of China (PRC) after an initial public offering (IPO). Firm-level panel data analysis shows that VC investment contributes to the long-term performance and growth of entrepreneurial firms after an IPO. Meanwhile, we observe a significant and positive relationship between corporate governance of firms and VC investment. However, we do not find that experience or specialization of VC firms influences the effects of venture investment on post-IPO performance or growth of entrepreneurial firms in the PRC.
Download or read book Corporate Governance Professionalisation and Performance of IPO Firms written by Rolf Christian Thiess and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining agency theory and the resource-dependence perspective as well as signalling theory, this thesis examines the role venture capitalists (VCs) and founders play with respect to both structural board characteristics and board capital in terms of experience and prestige and whether these are linked to performance. It claims that VCs and founders shape the governance system of the firms going public and are influential in the professionalisation of the ventures especially in terms of human and social capital of its board of directors. It also argues that the board of directors represents a signal of firm quality in the initial public offering (IPO) market and should thus be linked to performance. Similarly, according to the venture capital certification hypothesis, being funded by VCs signals a firm's quality and potential. In order to assess these claims, this thesis employs a unique sample of matched venturecapital- backed and non-venture-capital-backed entrepreneurial IPOs that floated either on the London Stock Exchange's Official List or the Alternative Investment Market (AIM). Extending previous research this thesis employs more fine-grained measures and introduces new conceptually relevant variables in the analysis. The findings indicate that VCs and founders are influential in shaping corporate governance of IPO-stage ventures both from an agency and resource-provision perspective. Findings from the examination of governance and professionalisation characteristics with respect to IPO short-run performance (underpricing) indicate that it may the involvement of prestigious auditors that signal firm quality while a founder bias discount seems to exist. While evidence is found that VC involvement (and to a lesser extent director/board characteristics) is related to post-IPO market performance, this seems to depend on the time period following the IPO examined, whereas auditor prestige shows a positive association in all of these time periods.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Other books present corporate finance approaches to the venture capital and private equity industry, but many key decisions require an understanding of the ways that law and economics work together. This revised and updated 2e offers broad perspectives and principles not found in other course books, enabling readers to deduce the economic implications of specific contract terms. This approach avoids the common pitfalls of implying that contractual terms apply equally to firms in any industry anywhere in the world. In the 2e, datasets from over 40 countries are used to analyze and consider limited partnership contracts, compensation agreements, and differences in the structure of limited partnership venture capital funds, corporate venture capital funds, and government venture capital funds. There is also an in-depth study of contracts between different types of venture capital funds and entrepreneurial firms, including security design, and detailed cash flow, control and veto rights. The implications of such contracts for value-added effort and for performance are examined with reference to data from an international perspective. With seven new or completely revised chapters covering a range of topics from Fund Size and Diseconomies of Scale to Fundraising and Regulation, this new edition will be essential for financial and legal students and researchers considering international venture capital and private equity. An analysis of the structure and governance features of venture capital contracts In-depth study of contracts between different types of venture capital funds and entrepreneurial firms Presents international datasets from over 40 countries around the world Additional references on a companion website Contains sample contracts, including limited partnership agreements, term sheets, shareholder agreements, and subscription agreements

Download or read book Venture Capitalists Experience and Foreign IPOs written by Jing Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrating signaling theory with social network theory, we investigate the influence of venture capitalists' (VCs') IPO experience on the likelihood of foreign IPO successes. Using data from VC-backed Chinese companies listed on the U.S. or Chinese stock markets from 2002 to 2012, we find that U.S. VCs' experience in either market increases the chance of listing in the United States. However, Chinese VCs' experience in the U.S. plays the same role, but not in China. For entrepreneurs who desire to pursue opportunities in international capital markets, the novel findings offer important implications in their VC selection decisions.
Download or read book Post Ipo Performance and the Exit of Venture Capitalists written by Tilo Kraus and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We test several implications of venture capital investment for the post-IPO performance of firms using data of 312 IPOs on Germany's Neuer Markt. Through tighter corporate control, third party certification and a reduced heterogeneity of opinions companies financed by Venture Capital firms might outperform their counterparties in the aftermarket of an IPO. However, this positive effect of VC backing on aftermarket performance could be reversed when Venture Capitalists seek exit from their investment. The discontinuation of a blockholder's exercised corporate control, signalling of insider knowledge as well as possible downward sloping demand curves provide an analytical framework that explains why the return series of VC backed IPOs might show a significant breakpoint at the time when Venture Capitalists exit from their investments. Our empirical evidence suggests that the expiration of lock-up periods as the earliest possible point of time for an exit represents such as breakpoint as Venture Capital backed IPOs outperform their counterparts before, but underperform around and after the expiration.
