Abstract

Zusammenfassung In den letzten Jahren waren in Europa zahlreiche Emissionen von Umtauschanleihen zu beobachten, hinter denen die vornehmliche Bemühung von Unternehmen vermutet werden kann, Beteiligungen zu veräußern. Anhand eines Datensatzes, der 57 europäische Transaktionen der Jahre 1997 bis 2003 enthält, zeigen wir, dass auch geringere Transaktionsgebühren und Ankündigungseffekte (−1,52% im Durchschnitt) im Vergleich zu direkten Sekundärplatzierungen den Einsatz von Umtauschanleihen rechtfertigen können. Die beobachteten adversen Ankündigungseffekte lassen sich durch die mögliche Konzentrationsreduktion der Aktionärsstruktur des Umtauschunternehmens erklären, die durch die Verminderung des Kontrolleinflusses des Emittenten für die übrigen Aktionäre erhöhte Monitoringkosten nach sich zieht.
