Venture capital and the structure of capital markets: banks versus stock markets

Article Abstract:

Economies of scope among financial and nonfinancial contributions by venture capital providers and venture capital investors' demand for a quantitative measure of venture capital funds' skill, can identify the significance of an exit strategy. The possibility for exit through an initial public offering, attainable in a stock-market-centered capital market, enables the venture capitalist and the entrepreneur to negotiate over control.

Article Abstract:

Stock splits are associated with significant stock price reactions upon announcement and execution. The market reaction to stock splits or announcements of stock dividends by non-US companies whose shares trade as American Depositary Receipts (ADR) are studied. Results show that the market reaction to ordinary stock splits could be a manifestation of the same liquidity effects that are at work with ADRs.
