Abstract

We propose a trust model to capture interactions between institutional investors and their targeting firms and to explain institutional investors’ decision-making process. Drawing on works in inter-organizational relationship, we argue that an investment decision on long a stock or short a stock is determined by presumed rule-based trust at initial stage and by confirmed relationship-based situational trust at the final stage. The final stage dominates the decision making. Our model also describes the cycle of trust to reflect the dynamics of trust building in stock selection. We also explore other commonly recognised antecedents of inter-organizational trust such as social ties, time horizon, power and resource dependence in the setting of stock investment.
