摘要
We analyse the long-term stock performance of Chinese initial public offerings (IPOs) between the years of 2000 and 2007. The results reveal that firms with political connections experience better long-term stock performance. Our results suggest that the abolition of the Issuance Quota System and Channel Restriction System has a negative influence on the long-term performance of IPOs. This evidence is consistent with the view that local government officials are likely to select politically connected companies to go public. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
