Abstract:

The quickest policy indication for increasing households’ trust in financial markets, to the benefit of the economic system, seems to be the offer of professional financial advice on affordable terms. The problem is how to convince investors to pay for advice, and how to protect investors who do not want to pay for advice from conflicted advice and from hard sell under the guise of personal recommendation—an area where MiFID I has not performed well. MiFID II’s answer is to pose a new set of information duties on financial advisors with the clear intention of nudging investors towards independent, fee-only advice. The intention is good. However, the new regime raises many important issues, including the ambiguity of the ‘independent’ suit, the interaction between the product governance regime and the suitability assessment, the regulatory inconsistency that it is emerging between investment advice and portfolio management, and the potential costs of the written statement of suitability.

Abstract:

Chapter 3 centres on the design and management of financial institutions’ information systems. The focus is on the interface between geographically spread institutions, centralized financial markets, and return-seeking investment strategies on the margins of markets. The importance of information systems as fundamental to the production of investment returns is underlined. The discussion takes into account several levels—one being the collection of financial market information for transmission to institutional investors so as to inform investment strategy and implementation, another being the sharing of information within an organization to facilitate the investment process and coordinate the individual components that derive the entire institution’s investment strategy. The chapter also provides an account of the growth of the global finance industry, theory of the firm, and an assessment of this logic in financial institutions specifically, and to economic geography in general.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter concerns the provisions laid out in the Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) regarding the unlawful disclosure of inside information and market manipulation. Considering the overwhelming evidence of a high level of market abuse activity, the preventative measures laid out here can be considered the MAR’s main contribution. Articles 17 to 21 of the MAR serve to complement the main market abuse prohibitions, serving the ancillary purpose of reducing the potential occurrences of insider dealing or market manipulation, through special, prompt, or objective disclosure requirements weighing on persons categorized according to the sensitivity of their professional positions. Articles 17 to 19 mainly concern issuers and their managers. Articles 20 and 21 impose objectivity and transparency requirements on persons producing or disseminating investment recommendations and on public institutions disseminating statistics or forecasts.

Abstract:

This chapter explores variations in dispute outcomes in investment treaty arbitration. Building on the literature on political institutions, the study places the theoretical importance of actor information about the rules of the game and the resources of the participants at the centre of analysis. Such information shapes the strategy of the players and their relative ability to compete successfully, establishing the basis for hypotheses about variations in dispute outcomes. Drawing on the universe of known disputes, the analysis relies on statistical models and data capable of addressing concurrently the full range of potential dispute outcomes rather than particular categories of wins and losses. States do not just win or lose treaty-based investment disputes; disputes can also be concluded by decisions to discontinue arbitral proceedings and by settlements negotiated between states and investors prior to an arbitral award. Consistent with theoretical expectation, the findings indicate that dispute outcomes vary in response to the evolution of the system of dispute settlement over time, sector of investment, and access to international legal expertise, thereby underlining the pivotal role of information flows in investment dispute settlement.

Timothy, Spangler. 14 Evaluating and Implementing Private Monitoring Solutions. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/law/9780198807247.003.0014.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter considers three private monitoring solutions designed to help fund investors better address the problems arising from the governance challenge by facilitating a better flow of information from the fund manager to the investors and their agents. All three private monitoring solutions recognise the commercial contexts in which private investment funds operate by emphasizing voluntary steps that fund managers and investors can take incrementally. Each focuses on the provision of accurate and timely information as the means to overcome the investment protection concerns that arise due to the collectivised nature of the private investment fund. The chapter first looks at the criticisms against private monitoring solutions as well as the limits of financial regulation before discussing due diligence as the commercial foundation for private monitoring solutions. It also examines how to best support the wider adoption and implementation of private monitoring solutions.

Abstract:

In recent decades, trading has become very popular among retail investors, mainly owing to widespread use of technology and a reduction in transaction costs. However, the growing information available to individuals and the higher complexity of financial markets have led investors to make psychological mistakes more easily. This chapter describes the main types of behavioral bias that affect individual investors, especially retail traders who frequently churn their portfolios. The chapter compares momentum and contrarian trading strategies used by such traders. It also discusses the impact of new information on market sentiment and its effect on trader psychology. Finally, the chapter examines the main behaviors of novice traders, followed by a summary of various studies that analyze the conduct of novice investors in the course of investment challenges and trading simulations.

Abstract:

Financial analysts are important players in the marketplace. Analysts’ reports, which include forecasts of earnings and stock recommendations, move market prices. Investors, both large and small, rely on the information in reports when forming their investment decisions. Given the relevance of financial analysts’ research, understanding whether their reports are biased is important. Despite an increase in market regulation, evidence suggests that analysts’ reports are biased. Research also finds that analysts’ bias increases when information uncertainty is high. Thus, investors should understand the possible dangers in blindly relying on research by financial analysts.

Abstract:

Where are the next decade's greatest investment opportunities? Veteran investor Marko Dimitrijevic argues that they can be found in frontier markets, which account for seventy-one of the world's seventy-five fastest-growing economies and 19 percent of the world's GDP. Yet many investors ignore them. Fueled by new access to technology and information, frontier markets are emerging even faster than their predecessors, making them an essential component of a globally diversified portfolio. In Frontier Investor, Dimitrijevic shows through colorful case studies, compelling charts, and fascinating travel anecdotes that it is not only possible but prudent to invest in these unfamiliar and undervalued options. Dimitrijevic explains how frontier markets such as Nigeria, Panama, and Bangladesh are poised to follow the similar paths of Chinese, Indian, and Russian markets, which were considered exotic two decades ago. He details a strategy for how and where to invest, directly or indirectly, to profit from frontier growth. Dimitrijevic covers the risks, political and otherwise, of these markets, the megatrends that promise exciting investment opportunities in the coming years, and the prospects for countries beyond the frontier, including Myanmar, Cuba, and even Iran. Rich with experience and insight, Frontier Investor opens up a whole new world—and worldview—to investors.

Smith, David M. Evaluating Hedge Fund Performance. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190607371.003.0023.

Full text

Abstract:

A diverse set of measures allow investors to evaluate hedge fund portfolio managers’ performance across different dimensions. The various measures quantify the effectiveness of security selection; account for investor flows, operating risk, and worst-case investment scenarios; net out benchmark and peer-fund performance; and control for risk factors that are unique to hedge fund investment strategies. Hedge fund return information in published databases is usually self-reported, which is a conflict of interest that produces several reporting biases and inflated published average returns. After adjusting for these biases, hedge fund average returns trail equity market returns and in fact almost exactly equal U.S. Treasury bill average returns between January 1994 and March 2016. Yet, after risk adjustment, the hedge fund performance picture brightens. In the aggregate, hedge funds have higher Sharpe ratios and multifactor alphas, and lower maximum drawdown levels than equity market benchmarks.

Franck, Susan D. Arbitration Costs. Oxford University Press, 2019. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190054434.001.0001.

Abstract:

Investment treaty arbitration (sometimes called ISDS or investor-state dispute settlement) has become a flashpoint in the backlash against globalization, with costs becoming an area of core scrutiny. Yet “conventional wisdom” about costs is not necessarily wise. To separate fact from fiction, this book reality tests claims about investment arbitration and fiscal costs against hard data so that policy reforms can be informed by scientific evidence, rather than intuition or cognitive illusions. The exercise is critical, as investment treaties grant international arbitrators the power to order states—both rich and poor—to pay potentially millions of dollars to foreign investors when states violate the international law commitments made in the treaties. Meanwhile, the cost to access and defend the arbitration can also be in the millions of dollars. This book uses cognitive psychology insights and hard data to explore the reality of investment treaty arbitration, identify core demographics and basic information on outcomes, and drill down on the costs of parties’ counsel and arbitral tribunals. It offers a nuanced analysis of how and when cost-shifting occurs, parses tribunals’ rationalization (or lack thereof) of cost assessments, and models the variables most likely to predict costs, using data to point the way toward evidence-based normative reform. With an intelligent interdisciplinary approach that speaks to ongoing reform at entities such as the World Bank’s ICSID and UNCITRAL, this book provides the most up-to-date study of investment treaty dispute resolution costs, offering new insights that will shape the direction of investment treaty and arbitration reform more broadly.

Abstract:

Firms generally begin as privately owned entities. When they grow large enough, the decision to go public and its consequences are among the most crucial times in a firm’s life cycle. The first time a firm is a reporting issuer gives rise to tremendous responsibilities about disclosing public information and accountability to a wide array of retail shareholders and institutional investors. Initial public offerings (IPOs) offer tremendous opportunities to raise capital. The economic and legal landscape for IPOs has been rapidly evolving across countries. There have been fewer IPOs in the United States in the aftermath of the 2007–2009 financial crisis and associated regulatory reforms that began in 2002. In 1980–2000, an average of 310 firms went public every year, while in 2001–2014 an average of 110 firms went public every year. At the same time, there are so many firms that seek an IPO in China that there has been a massive waiting list of hundreds of firms in recent years. Some countries are promoting small junior stock exchanges to go public early, and even crowdfunding to avoid any prospectus disclosure. Financial regulation of analysts and investment banks has been evolving in ways that drastically impact the economics of going public—in some countries, such as the United States, drastically increasing the minimum size of a company before it can expect to go public. This Handbook not only systematically and comprehensively consolidates a large body of literature on IPOs, but provides a foundation for future debates and inquiry.
