  • PRIVATE EQUITY DEMYSTIFIED an Explanatory Guide
    Financing Change PRIVATE EQUITY DEMYSTIFIED An explanatory guide John Gilligan and Mike Wright Financing Change An initiative from the ICAEW Corporate Finance Faculty This is the first report to be published under Financing Change, the thought leadership programme of the ICAEW Corporate Finance Faculty. The faculty is the world’s largest network of professionals involved in corporate finance and counts accountants, lawyers, bankers, other practitioners and people in business among its members. Financing Change aims to advance the economic and social contribution of corporate finance activity by promoting better understanding and practice. Once a niche market for finance, private equity today competes with the public markets as a provider of equity capital, and is the owner of many large companies which are household names and major employers. Private equity has been the subject of public debate in many jurisdictions and a number of common public policy challenges have arisen. If future private equity deals are to achieve their full economic potential and avoid being constrained unnecessarily by legislators and regulators, it is important that dealmakers continue to have regard to the context in which private equity transactions take place, and that greater effort is made to provide all stakeholders with clear, transparent and objective information. Private equity demystified – An explanatory guide was commissioned to shed light on the motivations of the main participants in private equity transactions and on their risks and rewards. It deals with issues of international relevance, using UK-specific examples to illustrate operating models, remuneration practices, employment regulations and taxation policy. The report also includes a review of academic studies on private equity transactions from around the world.

  • Mood and Stock Returns the Effect of Weather Conditions and Biorhythm on the Dutch Stock Market
    Mood and Stock Returns The effect of weather conditions and biorhythm on the Dutch stock market Juline Nijhout 354646 Supervisor: Prof. Han Bleichrodt Erasmus School of Economics Erasmus University, Rotterdam This thesis is submitted for the Master of Science in Behavioural Economics November 2016 Abstract This master thesis investigates the influence of mood classified as investor sentiment in financial markets on Dutch stock market returns. The Dutch weather and biorhythm are used as mood-proxy variables to measure its influence on the large-cap AEX Index and the small-cap AScX Index between 2005 and 2016. The statistical significance is evaluated using Ordinary Least Squares regression analysis with Newey-West standard errors and Least Absolute Deviations. The results do not violate the efficient market hypothesis for large-cap stocks in the Netherlands. Significant effects are found for Seasonal Affective Disorder and temperature on small-cap stocks, but these regression coefficients are smaller than 0.0005. Preface This master thesis is the final project of my master in Behavioural Economics at the Erasmus School of Economics in Rotterdam. By writing this thesis I developed a more thorough understanding of statistics and conducting research. Also, this has been a great opportunity to combine the knowledge of behavioural economics and finance I gained during the past year. In the existing literature, different events have been examined that are associated with investor mood. I chose the weather and biorhythm, since all investors are exposed to these conditions. I enjoyed writing this thesis, especially because the results could have major practical implications. I would like to thank dr.
