Abstract

The aim of this study was to find evidence for the implementation of&capital asset pricing model (CAPM) on companies listed at Pakistan StockExchange before, during and after financial crisis. The data of 50&companies were collected ranging from various sectors of Pakistan stockexchange. Data were divided into 3 different groups: year 2005-2007,&2008-2010 and 2011-2013. Regression analysis was conducted for testingthe hypotheses by taking Pakistan stock exchange 100 index as&independent variable and individual stocks return as dependent variable.Three different levels of significance have been used: significance at 1%,&significance at 5%, and significance at 10%. The results suggested that inPakistan different business organizations due to narrow scope of business&are relatively less diversified and have relatively high flexibility ofresponding unexpected and uncertain events, influencing overall market&performance. Similarly, large number of companies, specifically duringperiod of financial crisis, are affected and influenced by numerous risk&factors. It was concluded that fair prices of stock cannot be determinedwith the help of CAPM in Pakistan.
