Abstract

Portfolio theory assumes investors are risk-averse, so accurately
measuring the level of financial risk in the stock markets is essential
to making correct portfolio decisions. Using both filtered historical
and Monte Carlo simulations, this study measures the market risk of
five developed and eight emerging stock markets. The results show that
the riskiest stock indices are the ISE100, BOVESPA, SSE Composite
and DAX30, respectively, whereas the S&P TSX, TSEC Weighted and
Jakarta Composite indices are found to be the least risky. Findings also
indicate that it is important to use models that take into account the
stylized facts of financial variables such as stock indices to obtain more
accurate results when measuring portfolio risk.

Portföy Risk Analizleri: Uluslararası Hisse Senedi Piyasalarından Kanıtlar

Abstract

Portföy teorisinde yatırımcıların genelinin
riskten  kaçınma  eğilimi gösterdikleri kabul edilir. Bu nedenle
doğru portföy kararlarının verilebilmesinde  
yatırım yapılacak piyasaların risk düzeyinin doğru bir şekilde  ölçülmesi  oldukça önemlidir. Bu çalışmada ABD
(S&P500), Fransa (CAC40), Almanya (DAX30), Japonya (NIKKEI225) ve
Kanada’dan (S&P TSX) oluşan  beş
gelişmiş ülke  gösterge hisse senedi  endeksi 
ile   Çin (SSE Composite),
Brezilya (IBOVESPA), Meksika (IPC) , Hindistan (S&P BSE Sensex),  Tayvan (TSEC Weighted),  Endonezya (Jakarta Composite), G. Kore (KOSPI
Composite) ve Türkiye’den (BIST100) oluşan 8 gelişen  ülke 
gösterge hisse senedi 
endekslerinin   finansal  risk düzeyleri Filtrelenmiş tarihi simülasyon
ve Monte  Carlo  simülasyon 
yöntemleri   ile ölçülmüştür.
Çalışmada hem aşağı hem de yukarı yönlü piyasa riski   üzerinde durulmuş  ve  hem
FHS hem de MC yöntemleri için beklenen kayıp 
tutarları (Expected shortfall, ES)  da  hesaplanmıştır. Çalışma  bulguları 
 sırasıyla BIST100, BOVESPA, SSE
Composite ve DAX30 endekslerinin  en
riskli;  S&P TSX, TSEC Weighted ve
Jakarta Composite  endekslerinin ise en
az riskli endeksler  olduğuna işaret
etmektedir. Bulgular ayrıca, portföy riskinin 
ölçümünde  hisse senedi
endekslerinin  karakteristik özelliklerini
 dikkate 
alan model yapılarının 
kullanılmasının daha doğru sonuçlara ulaşılabilmesi açısından önemli
olduğuna işaret etmektedir.
