Abstract IPO (initial public offerings) overpricing has become an important phenomenon in current Chinese stock market. The concept of pricing deviation ratio was introduced to measure IPO pricing efficiency. The data of A-share IPOs from 2005 to 2011 were used to examine how shareholders' characteristics affect the IPO pricing efficiency. Analyses show that foreign ownership is associated with higher IPO pricing efficiency, with state ownership and venture capital ownership being associated with lower IPO pricing efficiency. The results also show that the IPO pricing efficiency is positively correlated with the founder ownership and the ownership that directors on the board hold. Further analysis indicates that the IPO pricing efficiency reduction caused by the state ownership comes from the conservative pricing strategy, while VC backed companies' pricing strategy is more aggressive. The IPO pricing efficiency is examined from the perspective of ownerships' characteristics in this paper, which provides a new way to understand and enhance the IPO pricing efficiency in China.
