Abstract

In this thesis, I study the existence of low beta anomalies on the country-level within European and emerging market countries’ stock markets. This thesis contributes to the existing literature by shifting the focus of the research from a traditional stock-level approach to examine the country-level results. I find no evidence of low beta anomaly. On the contrary, I find that portfolios with high-beta countries deliver higher risk-adjusted returns within the pooled data sample of European and emerging market countries.
