本文以2006—2012年我国沪深两市首次公开发行(IP0)的民营企业为样本,考察风险投资的介入对这些公司上市速度、上市机会和市场表现的影响。研究发现:(1)风险投资介入的民营企业具有更快的上市速度和更优的上市机会,并且风险投资的经验积累和社会关系能够进一步增强这种优势;(2)有风险投资参与的民营企业在IPO时存在盈余操纵,而且这种操纵能进一步降低民营企业的IPO折价率。研究结果表明,在我国股票市场IPO资源稀缺的情况下,风险投资的介入有助于民营企业实现IPO,因而可称得上是其“救星”。
Choosing IPO private firms in stock markets of Shanghai and Shenzhen during 2006 and 2012 as a study sample, this paper analyzes how venture capitals' involvement influences sample companies' IPO pace, probability and performance. We find that: 1. Venture capitals can accelerate private firms' IPO pace and increase their IPO probability, and venture capitals' experiences and networks can increase these advantages. 2. Venture capitals' involvement can lower private firms' IPO underpricing, and private firms' earning management can further lower. The study shows that the involvement of venture capital is beneficial to private firms' IPO. So we believe that venture capital is a "savior" in private firms' IPO.
