contents Factors related to the liquidations of ETFs during 2008 Herminio Romero-Pérez Administración y Contabilidad ETFs Exchange traded funds fund closing fund liquidation The purpose of this study is to identify factors related to the closing of 50 ETFs in 2008. The study compared the sample of liquidated ETFs to a matched sample of active ETFs. The factors used as explanatory variables were: market capitalization, liquidity, ETF return, Index return, tracking error, fund age, and premium. Lower liquidity values, higher tracking errors, and higher ETF returns were associated with higher probabilities of liquidation. The researcher found evidence that ETFs’ market makers were profiting from the creation of new ETFs’ shares just before liquidating the ETFs’ shares at a premium. 2013 artículo científico 1541-8561 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=63131334002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=631 Forum Empresarial application/pdf Universidad de Puerto Rico Forum Empresarial (Puerto Rico) Num.2 Vol.18
