Kredi Derecelendirmenin Borsa Endeksleri Üzerindeki Etkileri: T-BRICS Ülkeleri Üzerine Bir Araştırma

Bu çalışmanın amacı derecelendirme kuruluşları tarafından verilen ülke derecelendirme notlarının ülkelerin borsa endeksleri üzerindeki etkilerini ortaya koymaktır. Bu amaçla, S&P, Moody’s ve Fitch derecelendirme kuruluşları tarafından 2004-2019 yılları arasında T-BRICS ülkelerine verilen derecelendirme notlarının hisse senedi piyasaları üzerine etkileri olay çalışması yöntemiyle incelenmiştir. Anormal getirilerin varlığı, olayın etkilerini açık bir şekilde ortaya koyabilmek amacıyla ±15, ±10, ±5 ve ±1 günlük olay pencereleri dahilinde incelenmiştir. Analiz sonucunda bazı ülkelerin borsa endekslerinde negatif (pozitif) olayla aynı yönde negatif (pozitif) anormal getiriler tespit edilmiştir. Ek olarak bazı ülkelerin ise coğrafi konumları itibarıyla aynı olaylar karşısında farklı tepkiler verebildiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Analiz sonucunda not duyurularının istatistiki olarak anlamlı kümülatif anormal getiri, ortalama anormal getiri ve kümülatif ortalama anormal getiriye yol açtığı tespit edilmiş, ilgili ülkelerdeki mevcut piyasaların yarı-etkin piyasa formunda etkin olmadığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
