Abstract

The underpricing of initial public offerings (IPOs) is generally explained with asynunetric information and risk. We complement these traditional explanations with a new theory proposed by Ellul and Pagano (2006) where investors worry also about the after-market illiquidity that may result from asynunetric information after the IPO. The less liquid the after-market is expected to be, the larger will be the IPO underpricing. The samples are the 41 IPOs carried out between 2001-2005. The samples are 7 Shari'ah-based firms. and 34 non Shariah-based firms'. Shariah-based firms are those included in Jakarta Islamic Index (nI), at least one period (one semester). Regression results show that the relationship betwee!l after-market liquidity and underpricing is insignificant unless we use trading frequency as proxy for liquidity for non Shariah-based firms.
