Cross-Listings and the Dynamics between Credit and Equity Returns
Authors: Patrick Augustin, Feng Jiao, Sergei Sarkissian, Michael J Schill
Publication: The Review of Financial Studies, Vol. 33, Issue 1, January 2020
Abstract:
We study how listing in multiple markets affects the dynamics between firms鈥� credit default swap (CDS) and stock returns. We find that cross-listing increases (1) the sensitivity of CDS to stock returns, (2) the integration of CDS with world equity and bond markets, and (3) the statistical synchronicity of CDS and stock prices. Our results are stronger for firms with greater media attention, analyst and CDS coverage, and Google search intensity and for listings in familiar markets. We suggest that a firm鈥檚 presence in global equity markets comes with an improvement in the credit-equity integration through a reduction of informational frictions.

Market and Regional Segmentation and Risk Premia in the First Era of Financial Globalization
Authors: David Chambers, Sergei Sarkissian and Michael J. Schill
Publication: Review of Financial Studies, Forthcoming
Abstract:
We study market segmentation effects using data on U.S. railroads that list their bonds in New York and London between 1873 and 1913. This sample provides a unique setting for such analysis because of the precision offered by bond yields in cost of capital estimation, the geography-specific nature of railroad assets, and ongoing substantial technological change. We document a significant reduction in market segmentation over time. Whilst New York bond yields exceeded those in London in the 1870s, this premium disappeared by the early 1900s. However, the segmentation premium persisted in the more remote regions of the United States.
