    The Limits of Arbitrage: Evidence from Dual-Listed Companies Abe de Jong Erasmus University Rotterdam a.jong@fbk.eur.nl Leonard Rosenthal Bentley College lrosenthal@bentley.edu Mathijs A. van Dijk Erasmus University Rotterdam madijk@fbk.eur.nl May 2003 Correspondence Mathijs A. van Dijk Department of Financial Management (Room F4-21) Erasmus University Rotterdam PO Box 1738 3000 DR Rotterdam THE NETHERLANDS Phone: +31 10 408 2748 Fax : +31 10 408 9017 The Limits of Arbitrage: Evidence from Dual-Listed Companies Abstract We study the limits of arbitrage in international equity markets by examining a sample of dual-listed companies (DLCs). DLCs are the result of a merger in which both companies remain incorporated independently. DLCs have structured corporate agreements that allocate current and future equity cash flows to the shareholders of the parent companies according to a fixed ratio. This implies that in integrated and efficient financial markets, the stock prices of the parent companies will move together perfectly. Therefore, DLCs offer a unique opportunity to study market efficiency and the roles of noise traders and arbitrageurs in equity markets. We examine all 13 known DLCs that currently exist or have existed. We show that for all DLCs large deviations from the theoretical price ratio occur. The difference between the relative price of a DLC and the theoretical ratio is often larger than 10 percent in absolute value and occasionally reaches levels of 20 to 50 percent. Moreover, deviations from parity vary considerably over time for all DLCs. We find that return differentials between the DLC parent companies can to a large extent be attributed to co-movement with domestic stock market indices, consistent with Froot and Dabora (1999).

  • Case Study: Unilever1
    CASE STUDY: UNILEVER1 1. Introduction Unilever is a British-Dutch company that operates in the market of consumer goods and sells its products in around 190 countries. Another remarkable fact is that they own more than 400 brands, what means an important diversification in both risk and the products they sell, among which there is food, personal care products and cleaning agents. In fact, twelve of these brands have sales of more than a billion euros. The importance of this multinational is reflected too in the fact 2.5 billion people use Unilever products every day, being part of their daily life. They also are responsible for the employment of 161,000 people in the different countries they operate. Finally, they believe in a sustainable business plan in which they reduce the environmental footprint and increase their positive social impact at the time they keep growing. 2. History Unilever was officially formed in 1929 by the merger of a margarine Dutch company and a British soapmaker. The margarine company of Netherlands was also a merger between the first margarine factory called in the world and another factory of the same product and from the same city, Oss, in the Netherlands. The soapmaker company revolutionized the market because it helped to a more hygienic society and the manufacturing of the product was wrapped. The name of the company is a fusion between the Dutch firm called Margarine Unie and the British firm called Lever Brothers. What Unilever did, was to expand its market locations to the American Latin and Africa. Moreover they widened the product areas to new sectors such as particular food and chemical products.

    Hindustan Unilever Limited Shift to Biomass Fired Burners CASE STUDY Figure 1: Nashik Biomass Boiler Figure 2: Orai Burner for incorporation of Vegetable Oil Residue Summary Hindustan Unilever Limited (HUL) has more than 20 manufacturing sites, where fossil fuel is being used to generate steam and hot air for process heating. To minimize our dependence on conventional fossil fuels and reduce CO2 emissions, the company started focusing on renewable energy opportunities since 2009. Prior to this, only 5 of our sites had biogenic fuel firing. A long-term road map for conversion of major fuel consuming sites was drawn-up. Since then, the company has commissioned 10 biomass fired Boilers and Hot Air Generators in India. Presently, more than 60,000 T of biogenic fuel is utilized annually for our process heating. Objective of Intervention The objective of the case study is to demonstrate the impact of biomass-based fuel usage on CO2 reduction along deliverance of cost savings. Type of Intervention and Location The intervention is to increase the share of renewable energy in HUL’s overall energy consumption portfolio by maximizing utilization of biomass fired fuels and reducing dependence on fossil fuels. The Reinforcing India’s Commitment Page 1 sites of intervention are the following locations where biomass-fired burners have been installed post-2010. These include biomass fuel-based Hot Air Generators (HAG) and Boilers (BMB): Chiplun (HAG), Goa (BMB), Haldia (HAG), Haridwar (BMB), Hosur (BMB), Mysore (BMB), Nashik (BMB), Orai (BMB), and Rajpura (HAG and BMB).
