This study examines the relationship between the performances of US equity REITs and the market risk premium, SMB, HML, MOM as well as an industry index and a real estate index. The statistical significance of the abnormal returns and the beta coefficients of independent variables are examined. The REITs are categorized in seven groups according to their investment areas and the analysis results are compared. Daily return indexes of US equity REITs are collected for the period between 2005 and 2011. These data are then used to estimate the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) of Sharpe (1964) and Lintner (1965), the Fama and French’s 3-Factor Model (1993) and Carhart’s 4-Factor Model (1995). These models are re-estimated by adding an industry and a real estate index. The empirical results show that these added independent variables improve the available models. Additionally, no abnormal return is detected for REITs and their returns have a positive correlation with the SMB and HML factors and a negative correlation with the MOM factor. Therefore,, the REITs are relatively small and have high book-to-market ratios. The negative MOM coefficients indicate that the losers will win and the winners will lose.

REITS in Turkey: the impact of the deviations from the global systems
Yönder, Erkan; Erdil, Erkan; Department of Economics (2015)
This dissertation aims to evaluate the impacts of divergence of Turkish Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) sector/industry from the global REIT markets. Turkish REITs do not have to pay out any certain level of income to shareholders and have a sponsored ownership structure, governed by regulations different from the global REITs, while they are still tax-exempted. The dissertation investigates the tax arbitrage, impacts of corporate governance issues such as board composition and sponsor ownership on the ...
Capital distribution policy and information asymmetry: A real estate market perspective
Downs, DH; Güner, Zehra Nuray; Patterson, GA (2000-11-01)
This article examines the relation between the distribution of capital to real estate investors and a market-based measure of information asymmetry. Previous research suggests that information asymmetries decrease as capital is distributed to outside investors. However, little attention has been given to those firms for which the marginal benefit of increased distributions may be small. Our analyses are based on a sample of real estate investment trusts (REITs), which are popularly characterized as high yie...
An Application of the Black Litterman model in Borsa İstanbul using analysts’ forecasts as views
Adaş, Cansu; Güner, Zehra Nuray; Danışoğlu, Seza; Department of Financial Mathematics (2016)
The optimal number of stocks to include in a portfolio in order to achieve the maximum diversification benefit has been one of the issues in which investors have focused on since Markowitz introduced fundamentals of the Modern Portfolio Theory. Each stock included in an investor's portfolio decreases the portfolio risk, while increasing the transaction costs incurred by the investor to create this portfolio. In this thesis, the size of a well-diversified portfolio consisting of stocks included consistently ...

A threshold cointegration analysis of interest rate pass-through to UK mortgage rates
Becker, Ralf; Osborn, Denise R.; Yıldırım Kasap, Dilem (2012-11-01)
This paper empirically analyses the interest rate transmission mechanism in the United Kingdom by exploring the pass-through of the official rate to the money market rate and of the market rate to the mortgage rate. Potential asymmetries, due to financial market conditions and monetary policy, lead to the use of a nonlinear threshold error-correction model, with hypothesis tests based on nonstandard bootstrap procedures that take into account the discrete nature of changes in the official rate. The empirica...
