摘要:There are three forms of information efficiency of a market that may be verified. Testing weak form efficiency provides information on reflection of the historical values of share prices. Most research on the subject proves the validity of the hypothesis that the technical analysis does not allow the achievement of abnormal rates of return. In the case of the semi-strong form the empirical research does not provide explicit answers; however, most research weighs in favour of the hypothesis of the semi-strong form of market informational efficiency. According to the hypothesis, it is impossible to achieve above-average profits in the long run, based on technical and fundamental analysis. The strong form efficiency represents another type of market informational efficiency, which is most difficult to verify, as it requires the use of non-public information. The purpose of the following article is to verify the strong form of market informational efficiency, based on the assumption that the institutions issuing recommendations have access to information inaccessible to the community of investors. The research sample consists of 3,270 recommendations produced between 1 January 2005 and 31 March 2010 by 63 financial entities with reference to companies making up the WIG 20 index. In most cases the obtained results provide evidence for the hypothesis that the strong form efficiency is characteristic of the WIG 20 index shares listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange
