A Note on the Pricing of IPOs

Lundtofte, Frederik LU (2010) In Economics Letters 106(2). p.105-107
Abstract
This paper studies the pricing of IPOs in a tractable model in which an investment bank faces some investors with superior information. We show how this can lead to underpricing and, based on our model, we make a number of empirical predictions.
