Abstract: | Prior empirical studies analyzing linkages between international equity markets have suffered because suitable real-world financial instruments representing national equity markets were not available for trading. In March 1996, World Equity Benchmark Shares (WEBS) began trading on the American Stock Exchange. WEBS are open-end index funds that trade like closed-end index funds; they are designed to closely track the international indices developed by Morgan Stanley Capital International. |
