| Tiivistelmä: | The switch in primary exchange listing of members of the Jardine Group from Hong Kong to Singapore provides unique setting in which to examine changes in exchange listings. Previous studies of listing switches from Nasdaq to AMEX/NYSE find increases in liquidity and positive abnormal returns. Clyde et al. (in Journal of Finance 52 (1997), 2103) report decreased liquidity and positive abnormal returns associated with switches from AMEX to Nasdaq. In contrast, this study finds decreased liquidity as measured by trading volume accompanied by negative abnormal returns demonstrating that expected liquidity increases are not the sole reason for exchange switches and that management may perceive benefits from a switch in listing even if investors do not. Moreover, evidence is accumulating that the increased liquidity observed by previous researches is only associated with switches from smaller to larger markets. |
