Abstract: | Unlike in the U.S., the initial price range for European IPOs is seldom revised. This paper develops a model explaining this seemingly inefficient pricing behaviour. As in Europe, but not in the U.S., underwriters obtain information from investors before establishing the indicative price range. The model has important implications for empirical research based on European primary market data. |
