Deutsche Boerse IPO indicator gives positive prognosis for IPOs in Frankfurt

Favourable market conditions expected for initial public offerings for Q1 January 28, 2013--Deutsche Börse published the IPO sentiment indicator forecasting issue activity for the 1st quarter of 2013 on Monday.

According to the indicator, the IPO climate, which reflects the sentiment of investors, companies and underwriters on the primary market, remained positive at 32.43 points compared to 32.8 points in the previous quarter.

In contrast to global IPO activities, market participants in Frankfurt see a favourable period for placing shares and expect a positive price level for them in the coming months. The lower volatility and higher valuation of equities is also having a positive effect on the primary market. According to the surveys, IPOs are primarily to be expected from March. This time window primarily arises from the fact that companies preparing for an IPO produce their financial statements by March, and from May onwards prepare their semi-annual reports.

Proposals for Better Management of Non-Financial Risks within the European Fund Management Industry

January 25, 2013--In a summary document that concludes three years of research on better management of non-financial risks within the European fund management industry-conducted with the support of CACEIS-EDHEC-Risk Institute is putting forward a series of proposals to limit these risks which emerged during the 2007-2008 crisis and undermined the quality of the UCITS label.

For EDHEC-Risk Institute, the sophistication of UCITS is one of the principal causes of a rise in non-financial risks. These risks are not the direct result of positions taken by funds on financial markets and for which they receive a reward proportional to their exposure, but rather produced by the operation of the value chain of the collective investment management industry itself.

EDHEC-Risk Institute Calls on Investors to Take Better Account of Pension Liabilities when Analysing the Solvability of European Countries

January 24, 2013--While public and private pension systems in the EU are under tremendous pressure, a new study by EDHEC-Risk Institute analyses the explicit and implicit pension liabilities that are weighing on the public finances, and the principal related risks.

As structural deficits become a target in the Eurozone and beyond, it is fundamental to evaluate the extent to which the increasing funding needs, and decreasing funding basis of public pensions, could add to public deficits.

Due to the variety of national systems, obtaining a clear view of pension liabilities is not straightforward. The recent 2012 Ageing Report (European Commission, 2012) goes a long way in providing comparable figures and projections of public pension expenditures. On the basis of these projections to the year 2060, EDHEC-Risk Institute has estimated the net present value of the corresponding liabilities for various discount rates.

Moscow Exchange Shuns Foreign Stock Markets with IPO

January 23, 2013--The Moscow Exchange announced Monday that it will shun the foreign stock markets traditionally tapped by Russian companies and go ahead with an initial public offering on its own Russian trading platforms.

The size of the stake in the unified exchange being offered to foreign and domestic investors was not disclosed, but the company is looking to raise at least $500 million, said a source familiar with the situation.

The Moscow Exchange was formed by the 2012 merger of MICEX and RTS, the country’s leading bourses, and was supposed to help the Kremlin transform Moscow into an international financial center. Experts said that the success of the IPO could be a litmus test for how far this aspiration has been realized.
