Abstract: | Unseasoned shares are sold through the Book Building processes in the USA and the UK, fixed price offerings in several countries, uniform price auctions in Israel or the new Internet-based Open IPO mechanism, and an auction-like mechanism called the Mise en Vente in France. The authors analyze and compare the performance of these various IPO mechanisms within the context of a unified theoretical model. |
