Equity Term Structure Of Property Funds And Reits In Thailand, Chenchai Chotchuangnava
Equity Term Structure Of Property Funds And Reits In Thailand, Chenchai Chotchuangnava
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
The equity term structure of property funds and REITs in Thailand is upward-sloping. This result contradicts with various studies suggesting that the term structure of risk premia is decreasing. A tenet of those studies is that, by holding long-term equity, investors are willing to forego a part of the compensation to avoid immediate risks which seems to be reverse for property funds and REITs in Thailand. There is evidence that the correlation between size and return is positive. Unlike U.S. REIT, the momentum factor has no application to explain the difference in excess returns. High turnover property funds and REITs …

Do Investors React To Purchase Price Allocation?, Nonthawan U-Thisanonth
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
This study examines the influence of Purchase Price Allocation (PPA) on investors’ decision making in Thailand by utilising the completed M&A deals which the acquirers listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand and are over 50% owned after transactions during 2010 – 2019. I investigate how purchase price allocation to goodwill impacts on stock return reaction surrounding the announcement of final PPA information and inspect an association between percentage of goodwill allocated to the identifiable intangible assets and potential earnings per share (EPS) dilution.

Bond Market Reaction Surrounding Share Repurchase Announcement, Phasaporn Kitjakarnkoson
Bond Market Reaction Surrounding Share Repurchase Announcement, Phasaporn Kitjakarnkoson
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
I reexamine the bond market reaction to share repurchase announcement. The wealth transfer hypothesis suggests that shareholders expropriate wealth from debtholders hence the debtholders should react negative to this news. I collect daily yield-to-maturity of corporate bond during 2005-2019 to calculate excess change in bond yield spread and classify bond characteristics into five subsamples which are sensitive to the wealth redistribution effect: payment rank, issuer rating, bond rating, bond maturity, and size of repurchase. However, I do not find evidence supporting wealth redistribution effect in all bond attributes. Moreover, firm ratings of repurchasing firms are less likely to be downgraded …

The Disclosure Of The Intended Uses Of Proceeds And Aftermarket Trading Volume, Pornpimol Wongsiri
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
This study aims to provide empirical evidence to support the idea of signaling in a situation with high information asymmetry. We attempt to understand how IPO issuer’s expectation on its aftermarket trading volume may affect its disclosure decision of the intended use of proceeds. The sample consists of IPOs between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2019 from 5 countries, including Australia, Indonesia, Philippine, Singapore, and Thailand. By using the expected turnover estimated from 3 approaches, we find empirical evidence suggesting that IPO issuers with low expected aftermarket turnover tend to disclose highly detailed information on the uses of proceeds. …

The Impacts Of Us Macroeconomic Announcements On Thai Bond Markets, Jaturapat Thanaboot
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
This study investigates the impact of US macroeconomic announcements both in terms of announcement day and surprise on Thai bond markets. More specifically, this paper analyses the different impacts of 16 US macroeconomic announcements on Thai bond markets. Using daily total returns on short- and long-term government bonds including investment-grade bond, I find that the overall US macroeconomic announcement days lower subsequent volatility in Thai bond markets while US macroeconomic announcement surprises raise volatility. Furthermore, after separating between types of US macroeconomic announcements, US inflation announcement days seem raise Thai bond market volatility while most of the negative US macroeconomic …

The first objective is to examine the effect of the different levels of turnover ratio on fund performance. This objective sorts mutual funds based on their turnover ratio. The findings are the performance of the high-turnover funds are indifferent from the low-turnover funds …

Intangible Capital, Q Theory Of Investment And Measurement Of Profitability, Kunyamas Nithipaisal
Intangible Capital, Q Theory Of Investment And Measurement Of Profitability, Kunyamas Nithipaisal
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
Contribution of intangible capital has been a notable factor of today’s economy. However, previous literatures mainly focus on outcomes of physical investment through classical theory of investment and financial ratios, so this paper aims to explain effects of intangible capital in two major points. Firstly, new Tobin’s q proxy, which includes intangible capital, is reexamined regarding its explanation of total investment; new Tobin’s q, thus, explains investment opportunities better in firms and years with greater intangible capital. Secondly, financial ratios are rearranged by taking intangible capital into consideration. As a result, firms with more intangible capital do not generate higher …

Characteristic Approach To High Risk Low Return Puzzle In Set, Putchara Poomgumarn
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
Theoretically investing in high risk asset generates high return. However, actual payoff in market is in the opposite side. In several empirical studies documented high risk stocks paid low return even lower than the portfolio of the lowest volatile stocks. I examine whether the cause of this anomaly is the lottery stocks. Lottery stocks which are low price, high skewness and high kurtosis might be desired by many investors even institutional investors. The assumption is that this high demand of lottery stocks might push the price up and cause low average return finally. Therefore, I set up the hypothesis these …

Is There Risk Reduction In Conglomerate Acquisition?, Paskamon Luntavanich
Is There Risk Reduction In Conglomerate Acquisition?, Paskamon Luntavanich
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
This study examines risk effect in conglomerate acquisitions through portfolio diversification framework. We find that based on asset diversification potential, acquirers’ risks are expected to decline when they engage in diversifying acquisitions. Interestingly, our result suggests that focus acquisitions are also associated with firms’ risk decrease. With this finding, it indicates that asset diversification potential is also pronounced even when the two assets, i.e., firms from similar industry are combined together. In addition, our results suggest that risks are expected to decline more when diversified firms make further diversifying acquisitions than focus acquisitions but this evidence could not be observed …

Optimal investment and consumption problem with proportional transaction costs known as Davis \& Norman problem is a challenging portfolio free-boundary problem to solve. According to the HJB equation, see Davis and Norman (1990), there are three optimal regions i.e. no-trade region, buy region, and sell region in which different actions are prescribed. However, the two boundaries separating the three regions are unknown and it is crucial to discover them in order to obtain the optimal policy. Nonetheless, under a special class of model in which the excess return of stock is assumed to be positively linear in variance reflecting the …

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
How corporate governance mechanism helps prevent underperformance of acquiring firms is controversial, especially with little evidence in Asia-Pacific literature. I examined how shareholder involvement by means of mandatory shareholder voting (class 1) and required information disclosure (class 2) under the SET’s Acquisition and Disposition Rule affected the market reaction on mergers and acquisitions. I did not find significant differences in the CARs among transaction classes with different degree of shareholder involvement. The results were consistent both in univariate and multivariate analysis which deal- and firm-level factors are controlled. I investigated further and found that concentrated ownership in Thai firms did …

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
This paper uses sample from 15 countries from different regions around the world to examine how past performance of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) impact on their fund flow in the following period. Piecewise-linear regression following (Sirri & Tufano, 1998) which allow past performance to be non-linear are employed in the model to examine the different sensitivity of past performance ranking to flow. The evidence confirms that past bad-performing ETFs associate with outflow and past good-performing ETFs associate with inflow in the following period. Furthermore, I also find that investors are more sensitive to bad performers than good performers suggesting that there …
