Abstract We provide new evidence on price disparity between Chinese A- and H-shares for cross-listed companies in the period 2006–2019. Our panel-data results show that the A-share price premium is negatively related to cash dividends and expected relative currency values between mainland China and Hong Kong. International investors in H-shares prefer companies that pay dividends regularly, and they buy when the Chinese currency is expected to appreciate. A discounted dividend theoretical model explains these results.
