This chapter presents a series of case studies illustrating how specific exchanges have actually been governed in particular contexts. The following institutions and contexts are described in turn: the proposed iX merger between Deutsche Börse and the London Stock Exchange (LSE), and its subsequent collapse, in 2000; the “Penny Stocks Incident” at Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Ltd. in 2002; the attempted takeover of the LSE by NASDAQ over the period 2006–8; Euronext's purchase of London International Financial Futures and Options Exchange in 2001; the resignation of the chairman/CEO of the New York Stock Exchange in 2003; and the purchase by the “Murakami Fund” of a major block of shares in the Osaka Securities Exchange in 2005. A few brief general lessons from each case study are also identified.

Abstract Oryginality and objective – Research on the pricing of stocks listed on developed markets shows inexplicable deviation from the pricing that could be observed with CAPM validity. A similar anomaly is found on the Polish market. Reasons for inconsistent pricing with CAPM are unknown, and they are the main objective of this research. Method – The study is conducted using stocks listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange in 1995–2012. Quintile stock portfolios are formed on the basis of strategies widely used by investors. The study is carried out in several modes. In the subsequent modes penny stocks with the market values below 0.5, 1.5, 5.0 and 15.0 PLN are eliminated. Results – It is conjectured that both penny stocks and improper procedures for the test portfolios forming contribute to inconsistent stock pricing in light of the CAPM. The studies show that results are in line with the extended conjectures. Also, study results indicate that speculative stocks are mostly penny stocks, however, it is not possible to explicitly state that penny stock are speculative.

Using the event study methodology on a sample of penny stocks for the period February 2006 through October 2008, our findings suggest <span style="color: black;">positive and significant abnormal liquidities for stocks targeted by manipulators during the event window. Robustness checks were performed using a non-parametric test. These results support the thesis that this kind of manipulation is a very flourishing business that manipulators exploit by simply purchasing stocks at low prices and selling them at higher prices. </span></span></span></p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span>

There has been a steady increase in institutional ownership of penny stocks over the past decades. Nevertheless, we show that penny stocks bought by institutional investors significantly underperform other penny stocks in subsequent four quarters. This poor performance is mainly driven by quasi-indexers, i.e., institutions with passive and widely diversified investment strategies. In comparison, dedicated institutions, i.e., those with low turnover but large average investments in portfolio firms and a commitment to “relationship investing”, have marginally significant ability in trading penny stocks.
