This paper investigates how underwriter-issuer matching choices and firm risks affect the cost of equity issuance. We show that underwriter-issuer matching is not random; it reflects underwriter reputation and risk concerns, issuers' quality, and equity market conditions. We apply Heckman self-selection estimation model to control for the endogenous underwriter-issuer matching. We find that the matching choice leads to considerable heterogeneity in pricing of issuer systematic and firm-specific risks in SEO underwriting fees. Low-reputation underwriters require compensation for bearing issuer's systematic risk but not for firm-specific risk, while high-reputation underwriters do the opposite. Moreover, evidence in this paper suggests that the underwriter-issuer matching decision entails a non-linear relation between SEO spread and underwriter reputation: high- and low-reputation underwriters earn higher spreads than medium-reputation underwriters. Our findings highlight the importance of accounting for underwriter-issuer matching in assessing SEO underwriting contracts. The results are robust to alternative underwriter reputation measure, model specifications, sample periods, and different samples of firms.

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 8,0, Maastricht University (School of Business and Economics), language: English, abstract: This paper will try to elaborate on the different and sometimes mixed empirical results, testing the relationship between underwriter's reputation and the price of the capital issue. Firstly, the two most cited and used ways of measuring reputation will be explained. Secondly, the relationship between reputation and issue pricing will be analysed from different perspectives. Thirdly, the existence of a relationship between reputation and fees as well as between reputation and proceeds will be proven. After that commercial and investment banks as underwriters will be compared and it will be shown that there are reasons to choose a commercial bank as an underwriter. Finally, the mechanics of how underwriters are being chosen and the reasons for switching underwriters will be analysed, before ending this study with a conclusion.

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2005 in the subject Business economics - Banking, Stock Exchanges, Insurance, Accounting, grade: 1,7, Martin Luther University, 38 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: The world of finance is complex. There are many aspects, which cannot be fully explained and still confuse the researchers. One of the most discussed topics is that of Initial Public Offerings (IPO) mainly because of the intricate connections between investment bankers (underwriters), issuers and buyers. This paper will try to summarize the whole process of going public and emphasize on the role of the (lead) underwriter in it. The paper discusses mainly the American "way" of going public, but the procedure is generally the same for the European market with some differences that are explained in the text. The advantages, disadvantages and the legal requirements for going public are enlightened, in order of understanding the important role, which the underwriter plays in the whole process. The structure and the legal consequences of the due diligence process are presented. The types of agreement between the underwriter and the issuer are described, with the consequences that originate from them. The ways of determining the price and the advantages and disadvantages of any of them are presented, with respect to the importance of the underwriter's role in them and the liabilities that she has. The problem with the underpricing is discussed more detailed, since this is one of the big challenges in the IPO process. Some theories that explain this phenomenon are briefly discussed, showing the mechanism that is behind the underpricing problem. Some of the unlawful allocation practices are listed, with examples that show that even the top underwriters use prohibited actions to ensure the successful completion of the IPO process. The importance of the pre-opening period for the determination of the right market price and the active participation of the underw

Using data from the unique setting of Indian IPOs, this study examines the underwriter-investor relationship based on underwriter reputation. We find that high reputation and low reputation underwriters have strong relationships with different sets of investors. While large institutional investors participate early in IPOs managed by high reputation underwriters, high net worth investors appear to do the same in IPOs managed by low reputation underwriters. The varying nature of relationships with investors also has important consequences for IPO pricing. Our analysis of the setting of the offer price shows that reputation matters greatly for high reputation underwriters. Low reputation underwriters, on the other hand, appear to price aggressively and set high offer prices even when institutional participation is negligible.

Suppose IPO underpricing increases with underwriters' reputation. This study demonstrates higher underpricing is compatible with higher credibility of underwriting by reputable underwriters. Consistent with stated inference, increase in valuation uncertainty risk, and severity of adverse selection problems induces greater dampening of IPO underpricing in populations of reputable underwriters. A formal model provides theoretical support for optimality of dampening of underpricing in response to increase in combination of adverse selection problems and valuation uncertainty risk. In presence of study findings, credibility of underwriting, equivalently reputation of underwriters cannot be unambiguously inferred from underpricing levels. Formal theory and empirical findings show a risk parameter derived from the Fama-French HML (high minus low book-to-market) factor is a good proxy for intertemporal variations in severity of adverse selection problems and valuation uncertainty risk.

Diploma Thesis from the year 2007 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,3, European Business School - International University Schlo Reichartshausen Oestrich-Winkel, 80 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: This paper aims at establishing a link between the average level of initial return of IPO shares, existing underpricing explanations and the dot-com bubble. In years prior to the boom of the new economy, underpricing was explained by various theories, which have extensively been developed since decades. However, in the years 1998 to 2001 IPOs were overly underpriced, leading to assumptions about behavioural aspects and investor irrationality. Analysing a comprehensive dataset of 371 IPOs on the Frankfurter B rse between 1997 and 2007, this paper aims at providing evidence that the observed lower levels of initial returns in recent years can indeed be aligned with existing theories on the basis of rational behaviour of market participants. Firstly, the IPO process and its major participants will be presented followed by a review of relevant studies on the IPO phenomenon. In the next step, established underpricing theories are recapitulated. A descriptive analysis of the data sample points out the particularities concerning the company and transaction characteristics of the sample firms. In a last step, a regression analysis relates various proxies for information asymmetry to established underpricing theories. It gives reason to believe that the irrationality at the turn of the century has vanished and that underpricing can again be explained by established theories.

The purpose of this monograph is to provide an overview of the IPO literature since 2000. The fewer numbers of companies going public in recent years has raised many questions regarding the IPO process, in both academic and regulatory circles. As we all strive to understand these changes in the market, it is especially important to understand the dynamics underlying the IPO process. If the process of going public is too costly or the IPO mechanism is plagued by too many conflicts of interest among the various intermediaries, then private companies may rationally choose other methods of raising capital. In a related vein, it is imperative that new regulations not be based on research focusing solely on large, more mature firms. Newly public firms have unique characteristics, and an increased understanding of such issues will contribute positively to well-functioning public markets and further growth of the entrepreneurial sector. We also provide a detailed guide to researchers on how to obtain a research-quality sample of IPOs, from standard data sources. Related to this, we tabulate important corrections to these standard data sources.

This study updates previous analyses of banks' activities in equity offerings in the Brazilian market. Using data for the 2004-2007 period, the study tests the hypotheses that banks with the highest reputations coordinate offerings with lower initial returns, lower levels of risk and charge more for their services. Three measures of reputation were constructed in line with measures used for the US market. None of the measures showed a statistically significant relationship with returns, risk, or remuneration. The difference between the mid-point of the preliminary price range and the offering price constituted the most significant element in the forecasting of returns.
