Tiivistelmä: | This paper aims at examining the potential conflicts of interest for the 'Neuer Markt' in Germany, especially venture-backed IPOs etc. Observed are high initial returns and outperformance during the first 6 months of trading, which significantly decreases over the subsequent 18 months. The individual performance depends on the venture capital underwriter and bank affiliation, exit behaviour, and lock-up commitment. Venture capitalists, and especially banks, timed well their exit which indicates some serious agency problems in the German IPO market. |
