This article analyses the exit decision in the European venture capital market, studying when to exit and how it interacts with the exit form. Using a competing risks model we study the impact on the exit decision of the characteristics of venture capital investors, of their investments and of contracting variables. Our results reveals that the hazard functions are non-monotonic for all exit forms and suggest t...
Abstract This article analyses the determinants of European venture capital activity. The main novelty of our work is in accounting for the idiosyncrasies of the European venture capital market.

Moreover, our work is the first that analyses the impact of the degree of information...

This article analyzes Portuguese venture capital exits, exploring the relationship between the type of exit and the asymmetry of information of the venture capital investments. The central hypothesis being tested is that the occurrence of partial exits is associated with signalling the investment quality and with the reduction of the degree of informational asymmetry. The data resulted from a study elaborated b...

Building upon the equilibrium model of Jeng and Wells (2000) and prior research, we study the determinants of the European venture capital market, adding up the unemployment tax, the trade sale exit and the market/book ratio. We collected aggregated data about this market and macroeconomic data, to which we applied panel data models, with fixed and random effects. With the best adequacy of the random effect mod...
