Ítem Control corporativo y riqueza de los accionistas en el sector eléctrico europeo(Universidad EAFIT, 2011-12-15) García, John J.; Trillas, FrancescThis paper analyzes how announcel changes in the corporate control (takeover) of Endesa, Hidrocantábrico and Scottish Power affect their stock market returns and the impact that these events have on the stock market returns of competitors of the target firm. Using an “event study” methodology we find that takeovers positively and significantly affect at the 1% level, the stock market return of the target firm. Results are robust across several econometric specifications as GARCH and MCO models. Also, the results suggest the announcement of the launching of a takeover positively and significantly affects the stock market return of the target firm´s competitors in industries with high market power.Ítem European energy industry shocks, corporate control and firm's value(Universidad EAFIT, 2013-11-12) García, John J.; Trillas, FrancescThe deregulation process in the EU electricity sector triggered strategic decisions that led to industry restructuring. This paper presents preliminary evidence of the impact of this process on investors, using event studies and estimation techniques such as least squares and GARCH. Our findings suggest three stylized facts: 1) regulatory reform in Europe was certainly accompanied by a takeover wave, as predicted by Mitchell and Mulherin (1996); 2) mergers and acquisitions had a positive impact on the stock price of target firms, and a much lower and sometimes even a negative impact for the bidding firms; 3) the effect of takeover announcements on the returns of competitors of the merging firms depends on the degree of market power. In countries with high market power (like Spain) competitors significantly increase share returns upon takeover announcements, whereas in countries with lower market power (like England and Wales) returns do not change significantly.Ítem El poder de mercado bajo el nuevo diseño del Pool eléctrico Español(2009-11-02) García, John J.; Banal-Estanol, Albert; Trillas, FrancescDuring 2006 and 2007, by means of the Royal Decree Law 3/2006, the Royal Decree 1634/2006 and the Order ITC/400/2007, several changes were introduced in the running of the wholesale electricity market in Spain. One of the objectives of these measures was to diminish the market power in the industry. This chapter intends to measure this market power by the difference between observed wholesale market prices and estimates of competitive benchmark price. This methodology has been used previously in the United Kingdom and California (Sweeting (2007) and Boresntein et al. (2002)), but has not been used so far in the electricity generation industry in Spain. The market power is reduced in the second quarter of 2006, but it increased again in the third quarter of 2007 and reached levels similar to the ones at the beginning of 2004 (0.43)Ítem Reforma regulatoria energética en Europa: impacto de los cambios de control corporativo sobre el valor de las empresas(Universidad EAFIT, 2012-10-15) García, John J.; Gutiérrez, Luis H.; Trillas, FrancescThe deregulation process of the European power sector generated strategic moves by the power companies leading to a complete reordering of the European electric market that brought out an upsurge of mergers and acquisitions. This paper researches how the following wave of mergers and acquisitions that took place in the 2000 impacted the market value for the acquiring and selling companies that took part of it. With this objective and making use of the event study methodology, and OLS, GARCH, and SURE econometric techniques, we found that mergers and acquisitions had a positive and significant effect on the average market price in public stock exchanges for the companies that were target which is consistent with previous studies.Ítem Regulatory Reform and Corporate Control in European Energy Industries(Universidad EAFIT, 2012-12-15) García, John J.; Trillas, FrancescThe deregulation process in the EU electricity sector triggered strategic decisions that led to industry restructuring.
