Abstract

Introduction: Empirical and theoretical literature points out that market timing attempts could shape financing decisions and persistently affect capital structure. However, prior studies on market timing did not distinguish between Shariah-compliant and non-compliant firms although Shariah compliance considerations may affect market timing incentives. Purpose: This paper aims to fill this gap in the literature by investigating whether market timing theory predictions are relevant in the case of Shariah-compliant firms. Methodology: This paper aims to fill this gap in the literature by investigating whether market timing theory predictions are relevant in the case of Shariah-compliant firms. We use a sample of 40 Malaysian Shariah-compliant companies that went public during the period from 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2018. Findings: The findings provide useful implications for investors and portfolio managers interested in investing in Shariah-compliant IPOs. They should identify market timers to avoid low subsequent returns of equity issuers.
