摘要
Beta parameter is used in finance in the form of market model to estimate systematic risk. Such βs are assumed to be time invariant. Literature shows that now there is a considerable evidence that β risk is not constant over time. The aim of this article is the estimation of time-varying Italian industry parameter βs using the Kalman filter technique. This approach is applied to returns of the Italian market over the period 1991-2001.
