    Private Placements by Small Public Entities: Canadian Experience

    No full text
    In Canada, most of the private placements are offered by small and unprofitable entrepreneurial ventures -- for which the asymmetry of information and adverse selection problems are particularly acute. Private placements are a very important source of equity for these emerging businesses. In contrast with the public offering process, placements of shares are made in the exempt market with accredited or sophisticated investors. It is assumed that these investors would be knowledgeable enough to protect their own interests. The aim of this paper is to analyze the extent to which such private placements can be considered “fair”, i.e. if they provide investors with a fair rate of return and if accredited investors are indeed able to price these placements correctly in a context of large asymmetry of information. The answer is clearly negative. Au Canada, la majorité des placements privés sont émis par de petites entreprises en émergence, non rentables. Les problèmes d’asymétrie de l’information et d’anti-sélection sont particulièrement sévères. Les placements privés sont toutefois une source de financement très importante pour ces entreprises. Contrairement aux offres publiques, les placements privés sont émis dans le cadre du régime d’exemption, auprès d’investisseurs agréés dont on considère qu’ils ont les connaissances requises pour veiller à leurs intérêts financiers. L’objectif de l’étude est de déterminer dans quelle mesure les placements privés procurent un taux de rendement équitable aux investisseurs et si les investisseurs agréés sont en mesure d’apprécier correctement la valeur de ce type d’investissement. La réponse est négative.Private placements, SME, securities regulation, public policies, financing, Placement privé, petites entreprises, réglementation des valeurs mobilières, politiques publiques, financement

    The Value of Capital Market Regulation: IPOs versus Reverse Mergers

    No full text
    We analyze the economic consequences of disclosure and regulation within a context of significant information asymmetry and lenient regulation. In Canada, firms can enter the stock market at a pre-revenue stage by fulfilling each of the requirements of an initial public offerings or using reverse mergers. This backdoor listing method implies a smoother oversight by the securities commission and a shorter process based on private placements. Controlling for several dimensions, including self-selection, we find that the choice of the listing method and regulation strictness significantly influence the value and long-run performance of newly listed firms. These results are consistent with theories suggesting that a commitment by a firm to a stricter regulatory oversight lowers the information asymmetry component of the cost of capital, reduces the heterogeneity of expectations and mispricing. This version was updated in December 2010. Nous étudions les conséquences économiques des exigences en matière de réglementation des valeurs mobilières dans une situation où l’asymétrie informationnelle est importante et les contraintes réglementaires limitées. Au Canada, les entreprises peuvent s’inscrire en Bourse alors qu’elles ne rapportent pas de revenu. Elles peuvent utiliser le processus classique du premier appel public à l’épargne ou utiliser une méthode d’inscription déguisée par prise de contrôle inversée. La supervision des autorités en matière de valeurs mobilières est plus légère dans ce cas, et le processus d’inscription se fait beaucoup plus rapidement. En tenant compte des multiples caractéristiques incluant l’endogénéité du choix du mode d’entrée, nous montrons que le choix du mode d’entrée et donc de la rigueur de la supervision influence de façon significative la valeur et la performance boursière à long terme des émetteurs. Nos résultats suggèrent que l’entreprise qui se soumet à une supervision plus stricte diminue l’asymétrie informationnelle, le coût du capital, la dispersion des anticipations et les erreurs d’évaluation des investisseurs.

    UKMARC AMC: Draft Rev 4.0: UK MARC format for archives and manuscripts control (UK MARC AMC)

    No full text
    This draft is the first attempt to establish a UK MARC specifically for Archives and Manuscripts Control since the British Library indicated that it would countenance such extensions to the national UK MARC format. In order to keep consistency with the general UK MARC format, standard UK MARC subject fields are not included in this document, since they should be taken from the latest version of the UK MARC manual. {A note of them should perhaps be included in UK MARC AMC.} {NB Text in braces is intended to be explanatory material for readers of this draft}. Certain other fields have not been included that might occasionally be used in the cataloguing of archival materials but would generally only be used for such materials in organizations which were combining archive databases with library databases. This MARC version is intended for use with descriptions of archive or anuscript material that follow, or fit, the traditional style of cataloguing: we assume that these will normally relate to paper or parchment originals. It is not intended for use with descriptions of other kinds of material. For these, fields may be drawn from the appropriate UK MARC document. MARC versions for use with archives in special formats should be developed, in order to complete the full range of facilities available to archivists and curators
