This paper investigates the macroeconomic sources of time-varying risk premia in Turkish REIT industry within the arbitrage pricing theory framework Turkish REIT industry differs substantially from the global REIT market as Turkish REITs do not have to pay out dividends, yet enjoy the exemption from paying corporate taxes, and have highly concentrated ownership structure. These fundamental differences have significant impacts on the performance of REITs compared to other stocks listed on Borsa Istanbul (BIST), especially in terms of the inflation-hedging characteristics and time-varying systematic risk behaviour. This article evaluates the Turkish REIT industry by using a time-varying multifactor model, which compares the REIT industry excess returns with various macroeconomic factors, including GDP growth, industrial production growth, inflation risk premium, and stock market risk premium. Our results provide the evidence of time-varying linkages among macroeconomic risks and the conditional first and second moments of excess returns on REITs. We find that among the macroeconomic factors, inflation risk appears to be the major concern in REIT investment. Additionally, Turkish REITs behave more like stocks than real estate. The documented perverse inflation hedges of REITs, the positive correlation between REIT returns and volatility of real economic activity, and the significant influence of ISE equity risk premium on REIT returns can be quoted as the indications of deviation of REITs' performance from real estate performance. If REITs behave more like stocks than real estate, the diversification benefits of having REITs in a multi-asset portfolio is seriously reduced.

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 ...
Default risk of wage-indexed payment mortgage in Turkey
Erol, Işıl; Patel, K (2005-09-01)
This paper analyses default risk of wage-indexed payment mortgage (WIPM) in Turkey in comparison with other standard mortgage contracts originated in high inflationary economies. Emlak Bank launched WIPM linked to Civil Service employees' wage (CSW) index during high inflationary period of late 1990s. Concurrently, the government introduced a policy linking CSW index to semi-annual expected rate of inflation in an attempt to facilitate housing finance for the fastest growing sector of the population. We fin...
Originating long-term fixed-rate Mortgages in developing economies: New evidence from Turkey
Erol, Işıl; Çetinkaya, Özgenay (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (Ankara, Turkey), 2009-12-1)
This paper intends to analyze the recent developments to introduce and integrate mortgage markets into capital markets of Turkey. The Capital Market Board has recently prepared a legal framework not only for a proper mortgage system, but also for the eventual securitization of these mortgages. Turkish banks started to contract, for the first time ever, long-term fixed rate mortgages. The paper uses traditional option-pricing model to evaluate the current 10-year fixed rate mortgage (FRM) contracts with embe...
Time-varying beta risk of Turkish Real Estate Investment Trusts
Altınsoy, Gözde; Erol, Işıl; Yıldırak, S. Kasırga (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (Ankara, Turkey), 2010-8)
This paper provides empirical evidence on the time varying behavior of beta for the publicly traded real estate companies (REITs) in Turkey using the last seven years of both weekly and daily data. In our sample period, Turkey’s GDP growth rate has experienced a trend break. After the long lasting financial crisis of 2001, real GDP growth rate has increased gradually from 2002 to 2005, but it has subsequently decreased sharply until June 2009. We use the Diagonal BEKK covariance specification of the M-GARCH...
