Hot markets, underpricing and underperformance: IPO anomalies under the light of modern risk factors

This paper investigates to which extent multifactor asset pricing models can explain the pricing of IPOs in the U.S. market between 1980 and 2015. The paper contributes to the existing literature by demonstrating that the hot market, the underpricing and the underperformance issues can be explained by the general trends and the intensities of various risk factors. We analyse the…

We map business accelerators in five categories: Independent Accelerators (IA), Corporate Accelerators (CA), Hybrid Accelerators (HA), University Accelerators (UA), and Government Accelerators (GA). We argue that accelerators can be described by two main acceleration models…

The role of angel investor identity in entrepreneurship

Grounded on social identity theory, we explore the identities and actions of 41 angel investors who invest in early-stage companies in the field of ICT. Our study reveals the existence of four pure types of angel investor identities and suggests how these identities shape their investment behavior and consequent exchange of resources with investees. We summarize our results in a…

Is taxing waste a waste of time?: evidence from a Supreme Court decision

Environmental taxes are often underexploited. This paper analyses the effectiveness of a garbage tax, assessing its effects on multiple outcomes as well as its acceptability. We study how a Supreme Court decision, mandating the Swiss Canton of Vaud to implement a tax on garbage, affects garbage production and beliefs about the tax. We adopt a difference-in-differences approach…

Le sentiment d'appartenance au Grand Genève demeure problématique: analyse des articles de presse et des discours politiques (2005-2017)

Le projet "Grand Genève" peine à créer autour de lui un sentiment d'identification fort. La collaboration entre le canton de Genève, le canton de Vaud et les départements de la Haute-Savoie et de l'Ain reste depuis 2005 une entreprise qui apparaît lointaine et détachée de toute notion affective aux yeux de la population. L'étude des discours politiques et des…

The role of bounded rationality and imperfect information in subgame perfect implementation - an empirical investigation

In this paper we conduct a laboratory experiment to test the extent to which Moore and Repullo’s subgame perfect implementation mechanism induces truth-telling, both in a setting with perfect information and in a setting where buyers and sellers face a small amount of uncertainty regarding the good’s value. We find that Moore–Repullo mechanisms fail to implement truth-telling in a…

The dynamics of norm formation and norm decay

Social norms are a ubiquitous feature of social life and pervade almost every aspect of human social interaction. However, despite their importance we still have relatively little empirical knowledge about the forces that drive the formation, the maintenance and the decay of social norms. In particular, our knowledge about how norms affect behavior and how norm obedience and…

Efficient weighting: a more powerful test for cross-sectional anomalies

Many researchers seek factors that predict the cross-section of stock returns. The standard methodology sorts stocks according to their factor scores into quantiles and forms a corresponding long-short portfolio. Such a course of action ignores any information on the covariance matrix of stock returns. Historically, it has been difficult to estimate the covariance matrix for a large…
