Tiivistelmä: | This paper examines the demand for auditing in the initial public offerings (IPO) market where informational asymmetries abound. Because these asymmetries create a demand for information to help establish equity values and for market signaling to mitigate adverse selection, IPOs offer a natural setting for studying the importance of auditing. The author tests the demand for auditing arising from both informational signaling and insurance signaling. |
