In this Open-Access-book three essays on empirical asset pricing in international equity markets are presented. Despite being of fundamental economic and scientific importance, international financial markets have remained considerably underresearched until today. In the first essay, the role of firm-specific characteristics is analyzed for the momentum effect to exist in international equity markets. The second essay investigates the validity, persistence, and robustness of the newly discovered capital share growth factor across international equity markets as proposed by Lettau and others (2019) for the U.S. market. Lastly, the third and final essay studies stock market reactions of European vendor banks to distressed loan sale announcements.

"Market quality" is a complex, ambiguous term that means different things to different people. How should it be defined, measured, monitored, and improved? What is the evidence about the current state of our markets? How effective have recent innovations been? How can we better meet investor needs? These are some of the questions that we address in this book, along with a broad range of issues concerning equity market structure, regulation, and the quest for best execution. Throughout, particular attention is given to the perspective of front line participants on the buy-side and sell-side trading desks.

The securities exchange industry is in a state of flux. Exchanges constantly develop new revenue sources and products, try to expand their market share through fierce competition and pursue the consolidation of the industry. A prerequisite for this development was their transformation into market-oriented for-profit entities that are dominated by outside investors. This process is commonly referred to as demutualization. In order to understand the current developments in the securities exchange industry, Felix Treptow examines the changing relationship between exchanges and issuers, analyses the micro- and macroeconomic drivers of the demutualization decision, and investigates its impact on market liquidity. He presents a detailed analysis of both the determinants as well as the consequences of the demutualization of securities exchanges.
