AB - This study explores the capital market efficiency of 5 countries in ASEAN economic
community including Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand
during 2006-2012. Researchers investigate the R2 which represents
the stock price synchronicity andfind that the Philippines stock exchange has
lowest R2 and is more efficient than others in the same region. This
contradicts to previous research results which find that R2 values
of emerging markets are higher than the developed economies. From the overall
regression estimates of ASEAN, researchers find that higher synchronicity stocks
are larger and have higher volume but less leveraged. The regression results
from individual countries confirm the relationship, except leverage which is
mildly positive for the Philippines.
