Popis: | The paper examines the impact of MiFID on stock price informativeness and liquidity in 28 EU countries. We find that post-MiFID the stock prices reflect greater firm specific information and the market becomes more liquid. Consistent with the ‘Catch-up Hypothesis’ our evidence shows that the impact of MiFID in terms of price informativeness is greater for countries that have weaker quality of regulation. We find that regulation with enforcement improves market efficiency. Our results are robust with respect to the choice of price informativeness and liquidity proxies as well as the control sample. |
