Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Venture capital (VC) has been playing an increasingly important role in the growth of early-stage companies around the globe. In addition to providing equity financing, venture capitalists also involve heavily in the management of investee companies and provide a number of value-added services. However, Gompers (1996) notes that VCs have strong incentives to grandstand by taking investee firms public prematurely in order to exit and realize investment returns early. Hence, the net impact of VC involvement on firm performance remains unclear. Using a sample of companies listed on the Shenzhen small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) board between 2004 and 2012, this paper examines the impact of VC on the short-term and long-term firm performance in emerging markets, particularly China. Empirical results show that compared with non-VC backed firms, VC backed firms are generally younger and smaller at the time of their initial public offering (IPO), as well as exhibit greater IPO underpricing. Moreover, although VC and non-VC backed firms do not exhibit differential performance during the lockup period, the former experience significantly greater decline in accounting performance as well as poorer stock return after the expiration of the lockup period. Additional analyses show that the level of underpricing and decline in firm performance are negatively associated with the age of VC firms. These results provide empirical evidence in accordance with Gompers (1996) grandstanding hypothesis, suggesting that VC firms in China have strong incentives to take firms public prematurely in order to exit and realize investment returns early. This strategic behavior in turn has a negative impact on the long-term performance and well-being of investee companies. We further partition the subsample of VC-backed firms into those backed by stateowned VC firms and those backed by non- stateowned VC firms. Empirical evidence shows that companies invested by non-stateowned VC firms tend to underperform those backed by stateowned VC firms, suggesting that stateowned VC firms have less incentive to grandstand.

Landstršm and Mason provide insightful commentary and skillfully pinpoint the contributions of a talented set of researchers. Both scholars and practitioners of venture capital will want to read this book.Õ Ð Harry J. Sapienza, University of Minnesota, US ÔThe second edition of the Handbook of Research on Venture Capital provides an important guidepost for venture capital researchers. As Landstršm and Mason point out, the nature of venture capital has changed dramatically over the last ten years. The asset class as a whole has failed to return principal and the old model is under tremendous strain. The contributors nicely highlight many of these changes, especially how venture capital has scaled beyond the US. For those of us active in venture capital research, the chapters raise many interesting research questions that deserve further attention.Õ Ð Andrew Zacharakis, Babson College, US This Handbook charts the development of venture capital research in light of the global financial crisis, starting with an analysis of the current venture capital market and the changing nature of the business angel market. Looking at governance structures, the performance of venture capitalists in terms of investments, economic impact and human capital, and the geographical organization of business angels and venture capital global ÔhotspotsÕ, this book also analyses the current state of venture capital research and offers a roadmap for the future.

Download or read book Venture Capital in the Changing World of Entrepreneurship written by John E. Butler and published by IAP. This book was released on 2006-03-01 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was not that long ago that it might have been possible to cover the topic of venture capital in one paper. Now, it is not possible to provide comprehensive coverage in even one book. The industry has flourished, as variations of he initial venture capital funds have been developed and now operates in most developing and developed economies. This is clearly reflected in this volume, which has a strong focus on Europe and Asia. Each of the papers is a stand alone effort. However, a full reading of the volume provides a panoramic picture of the global extent of venture capital, some of its challenges, and the likely direction of future efforts. Venture capital and the venture capitalist have been shown to have a positive impact on performance in many cases. This is clearly the reason why some many emerging economies want to increase the level of venture capital investment in their country.

Book excerpt: Abstract: In addition to initial financing, venture capital (VC) firms also provide other value-added contributions. Many VC firms and their portfolio companies consider these value-added contributions the most significant contributions VC firms make. The value-added contributions have been found to be different depending on whether the VC firm is a "traditional" VC firm or "corporate" venture capital (CVC) firm. Traditional VC and CVC firms have different investment objectives and possess different areas of expertise, leading to differences in the value-added contributions provided. The differences in the value-added contributions raise the question of whether the performance of portfolio firms is affected by the type of venture capital backer. This study seeks to 1) quantify the impact of VC-affiliation on portfolio firm performance, and 2) compare the differences in performance of VC and CVC firms' portfolio companies. The paper examines the financial performance, IPO valuation, and stock performance of VC-backed, CVC-backed, and independent companies in the 3-year period following an IPO. The years 1998, 1999, and 2002 (representing the height of the tech bubble and bear market of the early 2000s recession) were chosen as the sample period. The results of the analysis indicate that VC-backed companies as a whole outperform independent companies in every aspect, confirming that the value-added contributions of VC firms help the performance of their portfolio companies. The performance of portfolio companies also differed depending on the type of their VC-backer. Traditional VC-backed portfolio companies had higher revenue growth and IPO valuations, while CVC-backed portfolio companies had higher net income growth and slightly better stock performance. Ultimately, the results confirm that VC firms improve portfolio company performance, and the impact of the VC firm's value-added contributions differs depending on the type of VC-backing.

Book Synopsis The Impact of Venture Capital Investments on Public Firm Stock Performance by : Tim Loughran
Download or read book The Impact of Venture Capital Investments on Public Firm Stock Performance written by Tim Loughran and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aggregate amount of venture capital investments in non-publicly traded firms since 1980 is more than $390 billion. We test two economic hypotheses on the connection between venture capital investment and subsequent firm performance. We find that lagged VC investments scaled by industry assets are negatively related to subsequent firm stock returns after adjusting for other factors. However, not all firms are equally impacted. We find that financially constrained firms suffer the most when new VC money pours into an industry. Firms receiving VC money are active in patent creation which appears to increase innovation pressures on established companies. It appears that the market is slow to incorporate the information contained in the venture capital investments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Project Report from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: B-, University of West London, course: BUSINESS STUDIES WITH FINANCE, language: English, abstract: This dissertation is written on the topic of “Optimisation of Venture Capital Processes": The scope of this dissertation is broad as it will closely signify and analyse all the important factors incorporated within the process of venture capital and would direct the underlying venture backed company towards the way of optimisation It has been observed that venture capital is frequently perceived as a synonym of private equity. According to Bygrave & Timmons (1992), the venture capital process is composed of four different phases (Investment Decision, Contracting, Control & Value Adding and Exit). The investment decision phase is much significant and is also time consuming. In relation to Contracting aspect, it has been assumed the each negiotated contract would be distinctive from each other and it would happen as a result of variation in term of assigning of control right adequate to that specific investment. With respect to Control & Value Adding aspect, It has been ascertained that through their active participation in the governance, aspect would have an opportunity in transfering their resources & competencies to the company in which they have invested. Therefore, major reason behind the significance of exit strategy in the venture capital is that in the earlier phases of development it seems very rare for the company to pay dividends to its shareholders. From the results of Investment Decision cases of all companies that there are three kinds of approaches (NPV, IRR and Real Options) that could be adopted for the purpose of estimating the value of companies’ projects backed by venture capital From the research paper on contracting factor, It has been discovered that important terms (regarding the composition and form of financial claims held by the entrepreneurs and venture capitalists) seemed to depend more on the size of underlying venture capital market size. From the case study on Control & Value Adding, it has been indicated that there is a direct relationship exists among the venture capitalists’ active participation and the performance of entrepreneurial companies. From the Journal on Exit Strategies, it has been observed that IPO is determined as exensively pursued exit strategy. However, trade sale is regarded as second preferred exit strategy. [...]
Book Synopsis Venture Capital, Entrepreneurship, and Public Policy by : Vesa Kanniainen
Download or read book Venture Capital, Entrepreneurship, and Public Policy written by Vesa Kanniainen and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2004-12-03 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experts in public economics and financial economics discuss the special role of venture capital and if public policy should promote the venture capital industry; empirical and theoretical perspectives are developed. The existing literature in both public economics and financial economics often fails to consider how appropriate and effective public policy may be in promoting the venture capital industry. Public economics has dealt extensively with the effect of taxes and subsidies but has neglected the unique role of venture capitalists as active investors who provide not only funding but added value. Financial economics has emphasized the special role of the venture capitalist but has not focused on the real effects of venture capital in industry equilibrium or the role of public policy. This volume in the CESifo Seminar series brings together experts in public and financial economics to develop a theoretically and empirically informed international policy perspective for an era in which policymakers increasingly look to venture capital as a source of jobs, innovation, and economic growth. The chapters in part I analyze data on the levels of venture capital fundraising in Europe, problems in the bank-oriented beginnings of German venture capital finance in the 1970s, and the inefficiency of Canadian labor-sponsored venture capital funds. Part II looks at the effect of venture capital on labor market performance, the importance of exit opportunities, and the effect of information inflows on the venture capital cycle. The chapters in part III take the perspective of public economics, reviewing the role of public policy in addressing potential market failures, improving the quality of venture capital investments, and affecting entrepreneurial business activity through tax policy.
