The chapters are grouped around three specific issues. Firstly, this analysis explores the issuer‒reputable underwriting matching for non-financial issuers and banks. Then, the underwriting syndicate formation is examined. Finally, reputation is disentangled by examining the evolution of underwriters’ market shares. 2017-12-07T09:23:21Z 2017-12-07T09:23:21Z 2017 2017-05-08 doctoral thesis Cuadros Solas, P.J.
