Abstract: This paper conducts a theoretical and empirical investigation of the pricing (and portfolio) implications of investment barriers in the context of international capital markets. The postulated market structure-labelled "mildly segmented"-leads to the existence of "super" risk premiums for a subset of securities and to a breakdown of the standard separation result. The empirical study uses an extended data base including LDC markets and provides tentative support for the mild segmentation hypothesis. THE QUESTION AS TO whether the international capital market is integrated or segmented appears particularly elusive. Indeed, the difficulties surrounding this important issue abound, as was made vividly clear by Solnik [20]. At the risk of tackling too ambitious a task, we undertake here to build a model and develop an empirical methodology to provide at least a partial answer to the

International capital asset pricing model: the case of asymmetric information and short-sale
TL;DR: An international capital asset pricing model in the presence of shadow costs of incomplete information and short sales shows that the dispersion in beliefs increases the market inefficiency, and that short sale constraints can reduce the cost of ignorance and the magnitude of the home bias equity.
Price disparity between Chinese A- and H-shares: Dividends, currency values, and the interest rate differential
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide new evidence on price disparity between Chinese A- and H-shares for cross-listed companies in the period 2006-2019, showing that the A-share price premium is negatively related to cash dividends and expected relative currency values between mainland China and Hong Kong.

The 'NYSE Premium': Decomposing the 'US Premium' in Compensation for CEOs of Cross-Listed Firms
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on the constituent firms of the S&P/TSX Composite Index (the largest Canadian firms of which almost half are cross-listed on US exchanges) and after controlling for firm size, industry, and other firm level characteristics, they found that the average premium paid to CEOs of Canadian firms listed on the NYSE was approximately 100% while the CEOs of companies listed on either the Nasdaq or AMEX received no premium.
Do Cross Listed Firms Thrive Better Under Crisis? Non Parametric Evidence from Zimbabwe.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined whether cross listed firms perform better than non- cross-listed firms in periods of economic crisis and found that cross- listed firms are more efficient, better governed and have higher market value compared to non-cross listed firms.

A critique of the asset pricing theory's tests Part I: On past and potential testability of the theory
TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematical equivalence between the individual return/beta linearity relation and the market portfolio's mean-variance efficiency is discussed, which implies that every individual asset must be included in a correct test.

A model of international asset pricing
TL;DR: In this article, an intertemporal model of international asset pricing is constructed which admits differences in consumption opportunity sets across countries, and it is shown that the real expected excess return on a risky asset is proportional to the covariance of the return of that asset with changes in the world real consumption rate.

The Effects of International Operations on the Market Value of the Firm: Theory and Evidence
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the existence of monopoly rents associated with international operations in a market-value theoretic framework and find that the benefits of international operations evolve from such factors as (1) imperfections in the product and factor markets, (2) differential international taxation, and (3) imperfection in the financial markets.
