BORÇLANMA ARAÇLARI PİYASASINDA ÖĞLE ARASININ KALDIRILMASININ GÜNİÇİ GETİRİ, VOLATİLİTE VE İŞLEM HACMİNE ETKİSİ

Öz

Bu çalışmada, Borsa İstanbul Borçlanma Araçları Piyasası’nda 01.08.2019 tarihinden itibaren öğle arasının kaldırılmasının piyasada işlem gören devlet tahvillerinin güniçi getiri, volatilite ve işlem hacmine olan etkisi ve bu piyasadaki güniçi yapılar araştırılmıştır. Bu amaçla, öğle arasının kaldırılma tarihinin 3 ay öncesi ve sonrasını kapsayan 02.05.2019-31.10.2019 döneminde piyasada işlem gören aynı gün valörlü 45 devlet tahvilinin 15-dakikalık periyodlar için hesaplanan getiri, volatilite ve işlem hacmi verileri kullanılmıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda, güniçi volatilite ve ortalama işlem hacmi formunun sırasıyla ters “J” ve “L” harfi şeklinde olduğu, öğle arasının kaldırılmasının gün içi getiriyi azalttığı, ortalama işlem hacmini artırdığı ve volatiliteyi düşürdüğü bulunmuştur. Piyasanın mikro yapısında meydana gelen bu değişiklik, fiyat oluşum etkinliğini artırmış olmakla birlikte bu etkinlik artışının, açılış işlemlerinde gün ortası ve kapanışa göre daha sınırlı kaldığı tespit edilmiştir.
