The influence of economic factors on rights issue announcements
This study investigates a number of economic factors to
determine whether individually or collectively they affect
the share price response to a rights issue announcement
on the JSE. It adds to the existing body of literature on
new equity issue announcements and it will assist
issuing firms and investors in obtaining a better
understanding of what influences the valuation of shares
when undertaking new equity issuances.
