The JOBS Act creates a new category of issuer, the Emerging Growth Company (EGC), and eases disclosure requirements for IPO firms with EGC status. Measuring information uncertainty using IPO underpricing and post-IPO return volatility, we find that both underpricing and volatility are significantly greater for IPO firms with EGC status than comparable firms without EGC status. Additional findings indicate that variation in the application of specific provisions of the JOBS Act explains the differences in underpricing and volatility. Taken together, the findings indicate that the JOBS Act’s eased disclosure requirements increased information uncertainty in IPO firms.","PeriodicalId":191299,"journal":{"name":"LSN: Corporations (Topic)","volume":"207 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124648634","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the most recent State trial court decision on remand from the Colorado Court of Appeals, the joint venture interests were found to be securities, and the defendants were found to be offering and selling the securities. This decision is now consistent with the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals, and likely spells the end of the oil and gas joint venture programs structured to avoid securities regulation while still cold-calling a large number of prospective investors, providing nominal management rights, and not requiring industry expertise. In Colorado, the Court of Appeals decision firmly established the \"economic realities\" test as the test to determine whether a transaction involved a security, and eliminated the \"strong presumption\" established in Williamson v. Tucker that a general partnership interest was not a security. consistently with the Tenth Circuit, provided a path for those wishing to form or defend joint ventures to follow. While, as noted by the Court of Appeals, “[courts] look at the expectations...at the time the interest is sold”, meaningful post-sale participation can be an indication of what the parties (and especially the investors) expected at the time of sale.","PeriodicalId":191299,"journal":{"name":"LSN: Corporations (Topic)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130920184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using survey measures of social trust of local residents in the United States, we find that firms located in low trust regions experience significant under–reaction to earnings news. External certification – either by obtaining credit ratings or employing high quality auditors – helps to mitigate this effect. The passage of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act largely reduces the relation between trust and under-reaction to earnings surprises, highlighting the interconnection between trust, certification, and investor perceptions.","PeriodicalId":191299,"journal":{"name":"LSN: Corporations (Topic)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123945976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Is there corruption in the enforcement of the U.S. government’s far reaching foreign corruption statute? The evidence suggests there may be. New research shows a spike in campaign donations by companies who are indicted for violations of the FCPA. The FCPA is a U.S. law that prohibits U.S. companies, companies listed on a U.S. stock exchange, and certain other covered entities and persons from bribing foreign government officials in order to solicit or retain business. The FCPA is widely viewed as an aggressive U.S. law which attempts to regulate corruption occurring abroad. Yet, it is possible that the decision as to which companies to prosecute for FCPA violations could itself be subject to political rent seekers.","PeriodicalId":191299,"journal":{"name":"LSN: Corporations (Topic)","volume":"366 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115964737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The misconduct ranges from abusive mortgage trades and misreporting on derivatives losses to manipulation of commodity markets. Major corporations, such as JPMorgan Chase and Morgan Stanley, have paid billions of dollars to regulators in penalties. The research project reviews the events from the perspectives of corporate governance, specifically whether shareholders are penalized for wrongdoing of corporate managers, and how far the regulatory practice of making settlements with the companies promotes accountability and corporate governance. The penalties diminish shareholder wealth and the question is whether shareholders end up as “helpless victims.” The research herein has combined theoretical and empirical methods. The theory part of research includes discussion of various regulatory methods and their efficacy, the justification for the settlements concluded by the corporations with governments, grounds for proposed personal liability against executives, and possible class action lawsuits in the future. The empirical element consists of review of investigative reports, disclosures by the companies, and settlement orders made by regulatory agencies. This helps form an opinion on the culpability of executives and the related issue about whether the costs of misconduct in the form of penalties are passed on to shareholders.","PeriodicalId":191299,"journal":{"name":"LSN: Corporations (Topic)","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132161761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The public interest (and the interest of all stakeholders) also has implications for the scope of the duty of care of bank directors.Conventional concepts of corporate governance address traditional risk areas in banking activity as well as tensions such as the “agency problem” and the need for oversight by directors of senior management. However, a new set of issues related to public trust has been triggered by the LIBOR scandal and most banks, and many commentators, profess a desire to “restore public trust” and address acknowledged shortcomings in their approach to ethical questions and the soundness of their corporate culture. A related, but different, set of challenges arises as a result.","PeriodicalId":191299,"journal":{"name":"LSN: Corporations (Topic)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115605046","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Prior literature on contracts suggests three primary motives for contracting: risk shifting, incentive alignment, and transaction cost minimization. We argue that the characteristics of the industry within which a firm operates should influence the design of corporate charters/bylaws because firms within an industry face similar risk shifting, incentive alignment, and transaction cost concerns, and so similar internal control and change in control concerns. Using data on a sample of U.S. corporations, we find evidence that: (1) there is substantial variation in governance provisions across industries; (2) the influence of selected industry characteristics differ across provisions; and (3) charter provisions cluster according to the industry characteristics that influence their incidence, which explains correlations between provisions within industries.","PeriodicalId":191299,"journal":{"name":"LSN: Corporations (Topic)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133395067","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
