Table 13
Regression of Market Variables on Lagged BOPEC Changes and Financial Statement Ratios:
Quarterly Value-Weighted Excess Return, (EX_RETURN)

This table presents regression results for a sample of 3,068 new bank holding company inspections with the dependent variable being the value-weighted excess return, EX_RETURN.  The ordering of BPchgL1 (the change in the BOPEC) is 1 for a downgrade,2 for no change in ratings, and 3 for BOPEC upgrades.  A negative sign for the BPchgL1 coefficient means that a downgrade will increase the dependent variable compared to no change.  All variables are defined in Table 5 and explanatory variables are lagged one quarter from the event quarter (where the BOPEC ratings change occurred). A single, double, or triple "*" indicates significance at the 10%, 5%, or 1% level, respectively.
