We find that the reported prices of private securities are frequently stale: nearly half of prices are not updated between quarters. We conjecture and find evidence that funds update private security prices when startups close a new funding round, which establishes a new valuation for the company. Followon funding round events generate large valuation changes for private holdings, which affect fund NAVs and lead to predictably strong fund returns in the days after the followon round, which is often anticipated by industry observers. Consistent with this interpretation, the fund returns after follow-on funding events are positively related to the economic significance of the private security valuation change for the fund (the product of the private security weight in the fund portfolio and the security\u2019s deal-over-deal valuation change).<\/p>\n<p>*Presentation in English<\/p>\n<h5>\u30d7\u30ed\u30b0\u30e9\u30e0 \/ Schedule<\/h5>\n<p>13:00\uff5e13:05 Opening Remarks \uff08MIYAJIMA,\u00a0Hideaki (Director, WIAS \/ Professor, Waseda University)\uff09<br \/>\n13:05\uff5e14:05 Presentation<br \/>\n14:05\uff5e14:25 Question-and-answer session<br \/>\n14:25\uff5e14:30 Concluding Remarks\uff08MIYAJIMA,\u00a0Hideaki \uff09<\/p>\n<h5>\u5bfe\u3000\u8c61 \/ Prospected Audience<\/h5>\n<p>Faculty and staff members of a university, grad students, undergraduates, the general public<\/p>\n<h5>\u4e3b\u3000\u50ac \/ Organizer<\/h5>\n<p>Research Institute of Business Administration,Waseda University<br \/>\nWaseda Institute for Advanced Study,Waseda University<\/p>\n<h5>\u7533\u8fbc\u307f \/ Registration<\/h5>\n<p>Free of charge.
