Asset pricing in created markets
Abstract
We investigate the applicability of the present-value asset pricing model to fishing
quota markets by applying instrumental variable panel data estimation techniques to
15 years of market transactions from New Zealand's individual transferable quota (ITQ)
market. In addition to the influence of current fishing rents, we explore the effect
of market interest rates, risk, and expected changes in future rents on quota asset
prices. The results indicate that quota asset prices are positively related to declines
in interest rates, lower levels of risk, expected increases in future fish prices,
and expected cost reductions from rationalization under the quota system. © 2007 American
