| Abstract: | Initial public offering holdings in the mutual funds of four large investment banks and five large non-investment banks are examined in this paper. The data is collected from the years 1997-2002. It is found that investment banks hold IPOs with different characteristics than non-investment banks. Investment banks hold IPOs outside the fund objective in 27 % of the fund/IPO pairs while non-investment banks hold outside their objective in just 5,4 % of them. Also significant differences in IPO underpricing is found. |
