This book is a collection of eleven papers concerned with the effects of market imperfections on the decision-making of economic agents and on economic policies that try to correct the inefficient market outcomes due to those imperfections. As a consequence, real and financial imperfections are related : economic decisions are simultaneously affected by imperfections present both in real and financial markets. Notwithstanding the obvious fact that market interdependence is not novel, scholar interests are typically concentrated on the specific relationship among economic decisions originating from particular imperfections. This explains why, in the case of perfect financial markets, we can speak of "the" us.

My dissertation is a study of corporate investment behavior under market imperfections. This dissertation is structured as three inter-related essays that each addresses a particular aspect of the investment behavior of firms and all share common themes which are 1) market imperfections complicate managerial decisions on investments; and 2) the models based on perfect market assumptions may not be correct. The first essay, The relationship between internal cash flow and investments, studies the puzzle of the sensitivity of corporate investments to internal cash flows and finds that a U-shaped sensitivity curve between investment and cash flows can be clearly identified in the U.S. and in most other countries studied. The second essay, The relationship between market valuation and corporate investments, studies the relationship between stock market valuation and firm investments using a model controlling for many market imperfection components and employing simultaneous equations estimates. Essay two finds that both market perceptions and fundamental factors are important influences on corporate investment decisions. Moreover, we document that market valuation has a much higher impact on investment than fundamental variables, which seems to be consistent with the contentions in Barro (1990) and Baker et al. (2003). The third essay, Who will benefit from diversification: a transaction cost view of diversified firms, studies the issue of diversification and using data for a number of countries finds that both firm-level and country-level variables are important determinants of the excess values of diversified firms. We find that country risk, legal system, country disclosure level, information asymmetry measures, and agency cost measures are all important factors that influence diversified firm values. Our findings are largely consistent with those suggested by the transaction cost theory and provide a new perspective for the evaluations of firm diversification. In summary, this dissertation studies the impacts of market imperfections on corporate investment decisions and suggests that when operating in an imperfect market, a firm's investment decision-making process is influenced by cash flows, stock prices, and transactions costs, and is much more complicated than in perfect markets.

This book presents an up-to-date overview of the theory as well as the empirics of the relationship between investment, financial imperfections and uncertainty. After reviewing the capital market imperfections literature and the empirical results, the authors discuss both traditional investment models with uncertainty and the more modern option based models. They present an overview of empirical results of the modelling of investment under uncertainty. In these examples the effects of capital market imperfections on investment are carefully considered. The authors conclude that there is overwhelming empirical support for a negative uncertainty-investment relationship. This book should appeal to academics with an interest in investment theory, professionals in the financial sector and students of macroeconomics and finance. "Investment, Capital Market Imperfections, and Uncertainty" assumes only a basic knowledge of mathematics and is easily accessible.

The aim of this study is to provide more insights into our understanding of several issues pertaining to the evolution of a firms' investment - cash flow sensitivity (ICFS hereafter), the evolution of a firms' research and development (R&D) ICFS and the determinants of a firms' R&D investment over total investment1 (R&D/TINV) ratio. This thesis uses non-financial US and UK publicly listed firms. Our work consists of a number of important and original aspects that potentially contribute to the literature on capital market imperfections. The study of the ICFS comprises one of the largest literatures in corporate finance, yet little is known about the ICFS trend over time, and the literature has largely ignored that firms invest simultaneously in two types of investment (capital and R&D) and there is some substitutability between them, thus the two decisions need to be studied together. Initially we show that over time the ICFS: (i) declines for physical investment, (ii) is negative and increases for R&D, and (iii) is negative and fluctuates around the same level during the pre-crisis period and positive during the financial crisis period for R&D/TINV ratio. We argue that these findings can largely be explained by the changing composition of investment and the rising share of the firms with persistent negative cash flows. Secondly, substantial differences are found between the a priori subsamples of financially constrained and unconstrained group of firms and between US and UK firms as well as between pre-crisis and financial crisis periods.

The study of security market imperfections, namely the predictability of equity stock returns, is one of the fundamental research areas in financial modelling. These anomalies, which are not consistent with existing theories, concern the relation between stock returns and variables, such as firm size and earnings-to-price ratios, and seasonal effects, such as January and turn-of-the-month. This book provides the most complete and current account of work in the area. Leading academics and investment researchers have combined to produce a comprehensive coverage of the subject, including both cross-sectional and time series analyses, as well as discussing the measurement of risk and prediction models that have been used by institutional investors. The studies cover many worldwide markets including the US, Japan, Asia, and Europe. The book will be invaluable for courses in financial engineering, investment and portfolio management, and as a reference for investment professionals seeking an up-to-date source on return predictability.
