Working Paper No. 2 Cost of Capital Effects and Changes in Growth Expectations around U.S. Cross-Listings
, 2006
"... This paper examines whether cross-listing in the U.S. reduces foreign firms ’ cost of capital. While prior studies document that U.S. cross-listings are associated with substantial increases in firm value, the sources of these valuation effects are not well understood. We estimate the cost of capita ..."

We find strong evidence that firms with cross-listings on U.S. exchanges experience a decrease in their cost of capital, which is economically

Effective runtime monitoring of distributed
"... devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) and other data sources are increasingly bridging the gap between the physical and digital world by providing fine-grained data about real-world events. Enterprise software systems are adopting the paradigm of event-based systems (EBS) to enable them to react t ..."
