LIVA offers a useful new way to assess returns on equity capital
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) shares at the time of its listing on Indian stock markets for public trading back in 2004, what returns would you have generated? According to TCS chairman, N Chandrasekaran, TCS shares had provided a whopping 3,000% return (bit.ly/3PgXEgF) by a certain point in 2021 when the stock traded at around ₹3,200 per equity share (the price is even higher now). How does one explain such a staggering number and what is the quickest way to calculate returns for any company’s stock, for any period, and in any context? The answer could be LIVA: Long-term Investor Value Appropriation (bit.ly/3CqEz3F), a metric developed by Phebo Wibbens and Nicolaj Siggelkow at INSEAD, which is an acronym for Institut Europeen d’Administration des Affaires, a business school, and the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, respectively.
