    Institutional Arrangements in

    Corporate Funding

    The historical institutional patterns of corporateborrowing in various countries have influencedthe development a countrys bond markets and

    equity markets. In Japan and Germany, companies have relied less on

    equity markets for funds than their counterparts in theU.S. In both of these counties, banking has been arelatively more important source of funds.

    In Europe, the close ties between banks and theircorporate clients hindered the development of aEuropean corporate bond market. That changed, however, with the launch of the euro in 1999,

    which promoted the development of Europes bond market.

    Changing Corporate Capital

    StructuresJapan, Germany & the U.K.

    During the early post war years,Japanese corporation reliedheavily on banks and the bondmarkets to finance their capital

    structures. In the 1970s, Japanese

    corporate debt to equity ratioswere 4 times as high as that ofU.S. companies.

    But, by the late 1980s, corporate

    Japan and the U.S. had similarleverage ratios. Germany continued to rely

    heavily on its banking market. The U.K. paralleled the U.S.

    during this time.

    Changing Nature of the Global

    Bond Market Historically, the U.S. bond market dominated the global

    bond market, with the U.S. market representing a keysource of financing for U.S. and foreign corporations.

    However, since the expansion of the European Union and

    the advent of the Euro-Zone, Europes importance in theglobal bond market as grown. In 2002, the U.S represented 43.7% of the worlds bond market;

    the European Union represented 29.4%. By 2010, the U.S. shareof the global bond market had fallen to 34.3% and the European

    Unions share had grown to 32.9%. In 2002, the U.S represented 53.8% of the worlds private bond

    market; the European Union represented 29.2%. By 2010, the U.S.share of the global private bond market had fallen to 40% and theEuropean Unions share had grown to 38.9%.

    Classifying the Worlds Bond Markets The worlds bond market can be divided into two

    broad groups: (1) the domestic bond market and (2) the international bond market.

    (1) The domestic bond market is comprised of allsecurities issued in each country by domestic

    government entities and corporates. In this case, issuers are domiciled (i.e., headquartered) in

    the country where those bonds are traded.

    (2) The international bond market is comprised ofnon-residents borrowing in another countrys bond

    markets Furthermore, the international bond market consists of two

    groups: (1) Foreign Bonds and (2) Eurobonds.

    Foreign Bonds: Characteristics Foreign Bonds are bonds issued by a non-resident

    and denominated in the currency of the country inwhich it is being placed (i.e., issued). Example: Ford Motor Corporation issuing a yen denominated

    bond in Japan

    Foreign bonds are subject to the regulations of the

    country in which the bond is being offered. The SEC regulates foreign bond offerings in the U.S.

    Historically, the most important foreign bond marketshave been in Zurich, New York, and Tokyo.

    Zurich and Tokyo because of low market interest rates; theU.S. because of its large market.

    Foreign bonds are often swapped out for anothercurrency.

    The Use of the Foreign Bond Market

    In contrast to IPO equity financing, where the majority of

    U.S. firms exhibit a strong home bias, in bond financing agrowing number of U.S. issuers are relying more on foreignbond markets for funding.

    For example: The percent of all U.S. firms issuing bondsdomestically fell from 92% in 1995 to 82% in 2006.

    Additionally, the share of non-financial U.S. firms issuingbonds domestically declined from 95% to 83% over thesame period. Thus, U.S. corporates are increasing their funding presence in

    the foreign bond markets.

    At the same time, the share of European issuers borrowing

    in the U.S. bond market dropped from around 20% in 2000to approximately 9% in 2006. Thus, European firms are increasing turning to their own markets

    In addition to issuing more equity in their home markets for debtfinancing

    Eurobonds Eurobonds are bonds issued by a non-resident

    and denominated in other than the currency ofthe country in which it is being placed. The bonds currency of denomination is referred to as an

    offshore currency. Example: Coca Cola issuing a U.S. dollar denominated

    bond in Europe.

    They are generally issued and sold simultaneouslyin more than one market and thus the advantage ofthe Eurobond market is that issuers can raise largesums of capital from investors all around the world.

    Issuers include national governments,

    supranational organizations (such as the WorldBank),AAA corporations and global banks. The U.S. dollar is the dominant currency of

    denomination for Eurobonds.

    History of the Eurobond Market The first Eurobond (which was also a U.S. dollar

    denominated bond) was the July 1963 issue by the ItalianAutostrade (Italian National Highway Authority), led by SGWarburg & Co and issued in London. $15 million; 5.5% coupon; 15 year bonds; listed on the London

    and Luxembourg stock exchanges.

    By 1972, the market had grown to $5 billion; $42 billion by

    1982 and $371 billion by 1995. In the early 1960s, the Eurobond market was mainly a

    Eurodollar bond market. Today, the Eurobond market comprises bonds

    denominated in all the major currencies and several minor

    currencies. For example, in 1996, the Eurobond market included issues

    denominated in the Egyptian pound, Polish zloty and Croatiankuna.

    The Main Features of a Eurobond Eurobonds are not regulated by the country of the currency in

    which they are denominated. Eurobonds are bearer bonds, i.e., they are not registeredanywhere centrally, so whomever holds (or bears) the bond isconsidered the owner. Bearer status also enables Eurobondsto be held anonymously.

    The Eurobond market is largely a wholesale (i.e., institutional

    market) with bonds held by large institutions. Pension funds, insurance companies, mutual funds

    Since they are denominated in an offshore currency, investorsin euro-bonds assume both credit and foreign exchange risks(if the currency if denomination is other than their homecurrency).

    Some publically offered eurobonds trade on stock exchanges,normally in London or Luxembourg. Others are placeddirectly with institutional investors without a listing (privateplacement).

    Rise of the Euro-Bond Market The Eurobond market offers several

    advantages for borrowers that may accountfor its rising popularity.

    (1) It gives U.S. borrowers access to a wider

    range of lenders, enabling them to diversify theirsources of long-term funding.

    (2) The market provides a good environment forinternationally active companies to hedge foreign

    currency exposures (through offsetting liabilities) (3) finally, through this market companies can

    enhance their global profile.

    Equity Markets

    For most of the post WW II years, U.S. equity

    markets had routinely attracted the lionsshare of global equity activity, especially frommarkets that were themselves consideredrelatively important (size, liquidity, regulation).

    However, following the dramatic evolution inglobalization since the early 1990s, anincreasing number of alternative financial

    centers have developed and achieve thelevel of sophistication needed to attract globalequity business.

    Early History of Equity Markets

    In 1899, London was the worlds leadingfinancial center, with an estimated 30% of theglobal stock market. The U.S. ranked second with just under 20% but

    was gaining momentum. Other Europeancountries held significant market caps, namelyFrance and Germany with 14% and 7%,respectively. (Note only 18 countries had major

    stock markets in 1899). By 1970, the U.S. equity markets accounted

    for 2/3rds of the worlds total equity market.

    in stock markets around the world. Today, almostevery country possess a stock market, and some

    Cross Listing Equity Shares Cross listing refers to the listing of a company's

    common shares on a different exchange otherthan its primary and original stock exchange. Inglobal finance, the term applies to the listing offoreign-based companies on national exchangesother than (and in addition to) its home

    exchange. Example of cross listings:

    Citigroup currently lists its stock on both the NYSEand the Tokyo Stock Exchange .

    Sony Corporation currently lists its shares on theTokyo Stock Exchange, the NYSE and theLondon Stock Exchange.

    33/52

    Why do Firms Cross List? (1) Improved liquidity: A listing on a more-liquid stock market can potentially

    increase a stock's liquidity and produce larger price earnings multiples. Thus, firmswith shares trading in small, less liquid markets may see price benefits from crosslisting in larger secondary markets overseas; thus positive impact on value of thefirm.

    (2) Raising capital: Having shares trade in multiple countries increases the ability offirms to raise capital. Cross listing as part of an IPO or secondary offering in theforeign market.

    (3) Increasing the firms visibility to potential customers, suppliers andcreditors (e.g., banks and bond markets): Thus, increase sales and expand

    funding opportunities. (4) Information quality: A firm's willingness to cross-list its stock on a market withstringent disclosure requirements and strong investor-protection laws can provideoutside investors with information they may need to determine the quality of the firm'saccounting information and financial statements.

    (5) Investor protection: This motivation, described in academic research as"bonding," is based on the idea that registration on a US exchange acts as amechanism that voluntarily commits the firm to a higher standard of corporate

    governance and investor protection. Bonding therefore might make firms attractive torisk-averse investors who might otherwise be reluctant to invest. (6) Cost of capital benefits: Cross listing may lower a companys cost of capital

    through improving liquidity, better corporate governance, and providing direct accessto foreign capital markets. See next slide.

    Stock Exchange Consolidations In 2006 and 2007, NASDAQ attempted hostile

    takeovers of the London Stock Exchange. Both takeover attempts were rejected by LSE

    shareholders.

    (2) to expand global capital raising benefits

    (IPOs) to corporations and (3) to provide liquidity (turnover) and global

    outreach benefits to investors.

    46/52

    Methods of Cross Listing

    Cross listing can take the form of either a directshare listing or a depository receipt program.

    A Depositary Receipt represents ownership ofequity shares in a foreign company. These

    receipts are issued against ordinary shares heldin custody in the issuer's home market.

    Depository Receipt Programs American Depository Receipt (ADR): arrangement by which

    foreign companies cross list on U.S. exchanges. Global Depository Receipt (GDR): arrangement by which foreign

    companies (including U.S. companies) cross list on foreignexchanges, other than U.S. exchanges.

    Depository Receipts A depositary receipt is a claim against specified

    number of underlying common stock shares. The DR ratio to the underlying share will vary based

    upon the local market share price and, in the case ofan ADR, the US share price of other companies insimilar industries.

    DRs can be listed (and traded) on a majorexchanges: For example: NYSE, AMEX, NASDAQ in the U.S. and

    London, Luxembourg, or Singapore outside of the

    U.S.. DRs may also trade in the over-the-counter (OTC)

    markets, or be privately-placed.

    American Depository Receipts

    The first ADRs issued and traded in the U.S.occurred in 1927 when JPMorgan listed theretail U.K. company, Selfridge's. ADRs were initially seen as a means of reducing the risk

    associated with holding shares overseas and reducingthe trading (clearing) times for American investors.

    Today companies from around 80 countries haveADR programs in the United States.

    Currently, ADR Depositary receipt volumeaccounts for about 15% of the U.S. equity market.

    American Depository Receipts American Depository Receipts (ADRs):

    Certificates that represent ownership of sharesof foreign companies. ADRs can be listed on any U.S. exchange, such as

    the NYSE, the American Stock Exchange, orNASDAQ. They can also be privately placed as Rule144A securities.

    ADRs trade in the United States just like shares ofdomestic companies, with each ADR representingsome multiple of the underlying foreign shares.

    ADR programs are managed by commercial

    banks on behalf of foreign companies. In the U.S. the major depository banks (April 2009data) are Bank of New York (1,732 programs)Citibank (322 programs) and JP Morgan (250programs)

    The Price of an ADR The price of an ADR trading on a U.S. stock

    market corresponds to the local currency price ofthe foreign stock in its home market, adjusted tothe ratio of the ADRs to foreign company shares.

    Thus, the ADR price also reflects the exchange

    rate between the two markets. Example:

    ADR ratio of 1:2 for a Japanese company (i.e., eachADR represents 2 shares of the underlying stock)

    This stock trades in Japanese market at 1,000 yen pershare and the exchange rate is 95 yen to the dollar.

    Given this information, this ADR would trade in theU.S. at $21.05 or (1,000 x 2)/95 = $21.05

    What Causes the Price of an ADR

    to Change? (1) Changes in the home currency price of the

    foreign company. Price risk resulting from changes in the outlook for the

    company.

    (2) Changes in the overall stock market of the ADRcountry. Systematic risk.

    (3) Changes in the exchange rate between the U.S.dollar and the currency associated with the

    underlying asset. Everything else equal: A strong foreign currency will increase the price of theADR.

    A weak foreign currency will decrease the price of the ADR.
