“…Analogue findings are, e.g., reported by Henderson and Pearson (2011) for the US and by Hernández et al (2013) for a European sample. 1 Empirically there is evidence that issuers decrease overpricing over the certificate's life time (e.g., Stoimenov and Wilkens, 2005;Baule et al, 2008;Baule, 2011) which is commonly subsumed under "life cycle hypothesis", incorporate higher markups in more complex products (e.g., Stoimenov and Wilkens, 2005;Wilkens and Stoimenov, 2007), increase markups at the end of the day (Entrop et al, 2013b), decrease markups when competition is higher (Baule, 2011) and anticipate investors' systematic trading patterns and adjust markups accordingly (Baule, 2011), which is consistent with the "order flow hypothesis" (Wilkens et al, 2003).…”
