Abstract
This paper examines the effect of blockholders on bank valuation. We use two measures of bank valuation, namely Tobin's Q and market to book ratio, and two measures of blockholders, namely number of blockholders and total ownership of all blockholders. Using a sample of publicly-traded bank holding companies in the U.S. from 1996 to 2001, we find a negative relationship between total ownership of all blockholders and bank valuation, but a positive relationship between number of blockholders and bank valuation.
