Journal Title: Research Journal Social Sciences (Online) - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
This study analysis risk return relationship of the electricity companies of Pakistan by using the return series of these electricity companies. Financial time series data have the property of autoregressive heteroscedasticity so move towards the ARCH family test. As the study want to analyse the risk return relationship so, GARCH-M Model of Engel et al (1987) is used, who empirically found relationship between risk and return. Results show that risk return in case of Pakistan electricity companies is not a specific relation (negative or positive) rather they show paradox of risk return.
