The purpose of this paper is to introduce IPO lockup regulation in Taiwan and test the market reaction to the IPO lockup expiration. We find that IPO stocks exhibit an abnormal increase of volume around the IPO lockup expiration. In contrast to the empirical results for U.S. IPOs, IPOs in Taiwan do not experience significantly negative returns around the lockup expiration. However, the IPO lockup regulation does affect the insider trading behavior when insiders dispose of their shareholdings.
