The research employs three estimation models: Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), Random Effects Model (REM), and Fixed Effects Model (FEM). The test results indicate that the REM model is the most appropriate. To enhance the reliability and effectiveness of the model, tests for model misspecification are conducted.
The results reveal the presence of autocorrelation, and the Generalized Least Squares (GLS) model is used to address this issue. Experimental results on banks in the HOSE and HNX stock markets indicate that return on assets (ROA), bank size (SIZE), and volatility (VOL) have positive impacts on systemic risk, while growth rate (GROW) exerts a negative influence. Keywords: Beta, financial variables, industry, OLS model, FEM, REM, systemic risk. The relevance of the research topic Conducting research to assess the systematic risk of stocks is indispensable for both investors and fund managers due to its direct influence on the anticipated VOLs of investments.
In addition to addressing the challenges associated with quantifying systematic risk, it is equally essential to explore the factors that influence this coefficient - essentially, what variables can modify the systematic risk of stocks. Multiple empirical studies have demonstrated that variations in systematic risk among companies are a consequence of distinct financial decisions, substantiated by diverse financial data. Notably, most of the impact studies concerning financial information and its effect on the systematic risk of enterprises are predominantly carried out in developed countries like the United States, Canada, and European countries. Nevertheless, Vietnam has seen limited empirical research on this subject, particularly in the banking sector.
As a result, the primary goal of this study is to investigate the influence of financial information (in the form of financial variables) on the systematic risk of stocks in the banking sector in Vietnam. This research contributes an empirical perspective to financial theory, particularly regarding systematic risk, within the context of an emerging and rapidly growing market like Vietnam. Simultaneously, the study addresses a limitation observed in previous research by considering the unique characteristics of individual enterprises and evaluating model deficiencies, thus ensuring the most appropriate framework for analysis. This approach is aimed at producing cohesive and representative results that accurately depict the dynamic nature of the industry and the crucial factors within it.
Additionally, the research focuses on the Vietnam banking sector, an industry of paramount importance for the nation's long-term development as it strives towards industrialization and modernization. The research helps investors to have better judgments and reasonable policies when deciding to invest in banking stocks. The first focus of this study is to identify, consider and evaluate the influencing factors and determine the extent of the impact of macro and micro factors on the share value of the banking sector in the Vietnam stock market from 2017 to 2022. Therefore, the topic " The Influence of Corporate Financial Variables on Systematic Risk: A Study in the Vietnamese Banking Sector" was selected to conduct the research.
The research subjects: The central objective of this study is to comprehensively investigate the financial factors that play a pivotal role in shaping the systematic risk profile within the domain of the banking industry on the Vietnamese stock market. This research endeavor is poised to offer a deeper understanding of the intricate relationships and mechanisms that contribute to the systematic risk experienced by banks in Vietnam. By examining these financial factors, the study seeks to shed light on how economic and financial conditions impact the stability and performance of the banking sector. This analysis is particularly relevant given the banking industry's crucial role in the country's economic landscape, where it acts as a key intermediary and driver of financial stability.
The research questions: In light of author’s stated research objectives, the author have devised the following research questions to guide our study: First and foremost, the author endeavors to discern the corporate financial variables that wield a significant influence on the systematic risk observed within industry groups related to banking on the Vietnamese stock market. This line of inquiry is of paramount importance as it delves into the intricacies of the financial components that impact the stability and risk profile of the banking sector, a critical player in Vietnam's economic landscape. By meticulously identifying and examining these variables, the author aims to gain a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted factors that underpin systematic risk within this specific industry segment. Furthermore, the study seeks to unravel the extent of influence that these identified financial variables exert on the systematic risk within the banking sector.
This aspect of the author's investigation is instrumental in providing a nuanced understanding of the role and significance of each financial variable in shaping the overall systematic risk. By quantifying and assessing the relative importance and magnitude of these variables, the author can elucidate their contributions to the systemic risk and gain a deeper insight into the dynamics governing systematic risk within this particular context. This exploration not only enhances our comprehension of systematic risk but also aids in the formulation of informed strategies for risk management and decision-making within the banking industry on the Vietnamese stock market, which, in turn, has broader implications for the nation's economic stability and growth. Research scope This study centers its focus on the comprehensive examination of systematic risk within the Vietnamese banking sector.
Systematic risk, a crucial element in the realm of finance, carries significant implications for the overall stability and performance of banks operating in Vietnam. Understanding and dissecting the intricacies of systematic risk within this specific financial domain is essential to not only financial professionals but also policymakers and stakeholders aiming to ensure the sector's sustainable growth and stability. The primary research object of this study is the assessment of how corporate financial variables influence systematic risk within the Vietnamese banking sector. The banking industry serves as a cornerstone of the nation's economic landscape, playing a vital role in intermediating financial activities and contributing to overall economic development.
By exploring the impact of corporate financial variables on systematic risk, this research aims to shed light on the factors that shape the risk profile of banks in Vietnam. This knowledge is indispensable for both financial practitioners and regulators seeking to make informed decisions and implement effective risk management strategies in this dynamic and crucial sector. It's essential to emphasize that the study's scope is deliberately confined to stocks listed on the HOSE (Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange) and HNX (Hanoi Stock Exchange) between the years 2017 and 2022. This specific timeframe and spatial constraint have been imposed to facilitate a more focused and comprehensive examination of the financial factors that influence systematic risk within this particular subset of the Vietnamese stock market.
This temporal boundary will allow for an in- depth exploration of the dynamics, trends, and financial variables that shaped the banking industry during these years, providing a valuable and contextualized insight into the industry's performance and risk profile within this defined period. Structure of the thesis The subsequent sections of this research have been thoughtfully organized to provide a structured exploration ofthe study's objectives and findings. 3 In Part 1, the author journey through the historical theories that form the foundation of our research and trace their development over time. This section not only presents a comprehensive overview of the theoretical framework within which the author’s study is situated but also demonstrates the progression of ideas that have contributed to the understanding of systematic risk and financial markets.
Part 2 the author provides a thorough explanation of the methodologies that have been employed in this research, demystifying their functions and highlighting their relevance in the study of systematic risk.
