Abstract

Most privatizations around the world, especially in developed economies, are staged processes involving multiple stages of share lockup and unlocking in the stock market. This paper proposes a theory on staged or step-by-step privatization. We show that such an approach is efficient, in the sense that it can successfully transform state-owned enterprises into efficient market-based firms. Our theory explains the popularity of staged privatizations around the world. We have also conducted empirical analysis, yielding supporting evidence for our theory.
