| Tiivistelmä: | This paper examines the relationship of concentration (hereafter as: cntrn.) of shareholdings with the number of financial analysts following a firm to see if shareholders' cntrn. substitute for the monitoring activities of analysts. Using a clean ownership dataset with a sample of over 3,100 firm-year observations for U.S. firms and regression techniques addressing any potential endogeneity, it is found that analyst following is negatively related to the cntrn. of outsider and insider shareholdings. Similar relations are found for changes in analyst following and changes in ownership cntrn. |
