MARMARA DEPREMİNİN FİNANSAL KURUMLARIN PİYASA DEĞERLERİ ÜZERİNDEKİ ETKİSİ

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, “olay çalışması” yöntemi kullanmak suretiyle, İMKB’de işlem görmekte olan finansal sektör hisselerinin getirileri üzerinde, büyük Marmara depreminin yarattığı etkiyi ölçebilmektir. Sonuçlar, depremin bu hisseler üzerinde kayda değer büyüklükte negatif bir “artık getiri” oluşturduğuna işaret etmektedir. İnceleme kapsamındaki tüm sigorta sektörü hisselerinde yüksek anlamlılık düzeyinde negatif “artık getiriler” gözlenmiştir. Bankacılık sektörü hisselerinde de negatif “artık getiriler” gözlenmiş olmakla birlikte, anlamlılık düzeyleri daha düşük bulunmuştur
