Abstract

[eng] The Profile of European Stockholders . This paper presents an overview of the main findings of an international project on Stockholding in Europe co-ordinated by the authors. Contributions to the project identify the determinants of stockholding in five major European countries (France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, and the U. K.). Each of these papers uses microeconomic data to identify the incidence of direct and indirect stockownership, and the relation of stockownership with socio-economic variables. The main conclusions of the study are that entry costs and information costs still represent important barriers to join European stock markets, despite the spreading of an equity culture in the last decade. . JEL classifications : E21, G11, M41 [fre] Cet article présente une revue des principaux résultats d’une étude internationale sur les détenteurs d’actions, coordonnée par les auteurs. Les contributions à ce projet tentent d’identifier les déterminants de la détention d’actions dans cinq grands pays européens (France, Allemagne, Italie, Pays-Bas et Royaume-Uni). Chacune de ces contributions utilise des données microéconomiques pour identifier l’incidence de l’achat d’actions direct ou indirect ainsi que les relations entre cet achat et des variables socio-économiques. Cette étude conclut, en particulier, que les coûts d’entrée et les coûts d’information représentent encore les barrières principales à une participation au marché des actions, malgré le développement de l’equity culture cette dernière décennie. . Classification JEL : E21, G11, M41
