Abstract
⺠We investigate the U.S. listing and delisting decisions of German companies. ⺠Market segmentation and bonding theories suggest positive valuation effects. ⺠But we find no evidence for cost of capital reductions or increased market values. ⺠Rule 12h-6 prompted 13 of the 18 cross listed companies to delist from U.S. markets. ⺠We examine the reasons for delisting and provide a case by case analysis for the firms still listed.
