The influence of the underwriting syndicate on the valuation of Spanish initial public offerings
The aim of this paper is to analyze the role of the underwriting syndicate in relation to firms that went public on the Madrid Stock Exchange between 1985 and 2004. The sample time frame chosen, which covers a period of twenty years, allows us to analyze the evolution of the role of the underwriting syndicate in valuation and information production throughout the process of going public in the case of the Spanish stock market. The results obtained provide evidence that the forming of larger underwriting syndicates leads to a better valuation of the offered titles. Likewise, in light of the results obtained, less underpricing is observed for those IPOs whose final offering price has been upwardly revised from the registration statement.
