Abstract

[fre] Cet article propose quelques remarques quant à l’analyse effectuée par D. Baudru, S. Lavigne et F. Morin. Si la part relative des investisseurs internationaux a baissé dans les secteurs ayant connu les meilleures performances boursières et s’est maintenue dans ceux où la capitalisation boursière a baissé, c’est parce que la croissance de la valeur boursière n’est pas la seule façon de rémunérer les actionnaires. Par ailleurs, les clients des investisseurs institutionnels pour compte de tiers ont une forte aversion au risque. Enfin, cela signale seulement que les investisseurs internationaux n’ont pas suivi toutes les augmentations de capital. M. Debonneuil explique, par la suite, pourquoi les investisseurs internationaux ne sont pas responsables de l’instabilité financière et de certains autres dysfonctionnements. . Classification JEL : G32 [eng] Comments on « International institutional investors : An analysis of US institutional investor behaviour » article . This article makes few remarks about D. Baudru, S. Lavigne and F. Morin’s analyse. We note that institutional investors have reduced their shares in sectors where stock exchange performances were the best. This phenomenon can be understood because the growth of stock exchange’s value isn’t the unique payment for shareholders. Moreover, institutional investors’ customers are extremely risk adverse. It also shows that institutional investors haven’t taken part in all capital’s increases. M. Debonneuil explains why institutional investors aren’t liable for financial instability and other mis-functioning. . JEL classifications : G32
