Double Moral Hazard Between Venture Capital Firms and Entrepreneurs

Tseng, Wen-Tsung 24 June 2003 (has links)
The literatures on venture financing mainly focus on proposing resolutions of entrepreneurial moral hazard. However, those researches ignore the fact that venture capital firms might behave opportunistically as well. Hence, this paper offers an effective mechanism to resolve the double moral hazard raised between venture capital firms and entrepreneurs. Three main conclusions are drawn as follow: It is shown that although convertible preferred stock could prevent venture capital firms from opportunistic behavior, it has poor efficiency in dealing with entrepreneurial moral hazard. On the other hand, staged financing, as opposed to convertible preferred stock, could effectively mitigate entrepreneurial moral hazard, but hardly avert from moral hazard raised from venture capital firms. In its conclusion, this study illustrates that both convertible preferred stock and staged financing act as an effective complementary mechanism for each other. Compared with any single approach, this joint mechanism could relatively resolve a certain extent of double moral hazard.

Capital-investissement et performance des introductions en bourse : application aux entreprises nouvellement introduites sur le nouveau marché et le second marché français (1991-2004) / Private equity and performance of initial public offerings : case of French new market and second market (1991-2004)

Cherrak, Jihene 14 December 2009 (has links)
Cette thèse s’interesse à l’étude des effets des sociétés de Capital-Investissement (SCI) sur la performance des introductions en bourse. La démarche suivie pour argumenter cette thèse nous a conduits, dans une première partie, à justifier notre positionnement théorique et à définir nos hypothèses de recherche. Cette étape nous a orientée vers l’analyse des caractéristiques des introductions en bourse et l’analyse du rôle des SCI notamment sur le marché des introductions en bourse. Nous avons construit une argumentation autour du rôle des SCI en matière de résolution des asyémtries informationnelles caractérisant les sociétés introduites en bourse. Les SCI, étant dotées d’une capacité à concevoir des contrats, d’un réseau de connaissance et d’une expertise, pourraient atténuer les conflits d’agence et émettre un signal positif sur le marché d’IPOs. En revanche, ces sociétés pourraient se retrouver face au problème de sélection adverse au moment de la décision d’investissement et/ou adopter un comportement opportuniste pour servir leurs intérêts. La vérification empirique de cette problèmatique est développée dans la deuxième partie de notre thèse. Elle consiste à comparer la performance à court et à long terme des sociétés financées de celles non financées par CI, ensuite analyser cette performance en foction de l’affiliation institutionnelle des SCI et enfin, expliquer cette performance en fonction de la réputation des SCI et des stratégies d’intermédiation de celles-ci, notamment la syndication, le financement séquentiel et la distribution des droits aux cash-flows et au contrôle / In this dissertation, it is tried to understand the effects of Venture Capital Firms (VCF) on the performance of VC-backed listed companies in France. To do this research, we try to develop, in the first part, theoretical framework and define research hypothesis. This part leads us to examine characteristics of initial public offerings (IPOs) and the role of venture capitalists particularly in conducting an IPO. We develop the argument around the role of VCF in resolving informational problems, characteristics of IPO’s market. A VCF, being specialists to draw up contract with entrepreneurs and possessing expertise and knowledge network, could diminish conflicts of interests and certify IPOs. However, these firms could run a problem of adverse selection and/or adopt opportunistic behaviour to serve their own interests. The empirical validation of this problem is dealt with in second part of this dissertation. It consists, in first place, to compare performance of VC backing IPOs to Non-VC backing IPOs. In second place, we determine the relation between the performance of VC backing IPOs and the institutional affiliation of VCF. In last part, we test explanatory power of reputation of VCF and their mechanisms of intermediation, particularly, syndication, staged financing and distribution of cash-flows and control rights
