Abstract
This study analyzes the effects of earthquakes on sovereign credit default risk. The study examines whether 20 major earthquakes that occurred in Türkiye, Mexico, Chile, South Africa, and Greece after 2010 have made a difference on CDS markets using the event analysis method. The results indicate that the earthquakes increased uncertainty in the CDS markets of all countries. These results prove that uncertainty about the ability of countries to repay their public debt has significantly changed compared to the pre-earthquake period.

Abstract
Bu çalışma depremlerin ülke kredi temerrüt riski üzerindeki etkilerini analiz etmektedir. Çalışmada Türkiye, Meksika, Şili, Güney Afrika ve Yunanistan'da 2010 yılı sonrasında meydana gelen 20 büyük depremin CDS piyasaları üzerinde bir farklılık yaratıp yaratmadığı olay analizi yöntemiyle incelenmiştir. Sonuçlar depremlerin tüm ülkelerin CDS piyasalarındaki belirsizliği arttırdığına işaret etmektedir. Bu sonuçlar ülkelerin kamu borçlarını geri ödeyebilme yeteneğine dair belirsizliğin deprem öncesine göre önemli ölçüde değiştiğini kanıtlamaktadır.
