Abstract

The aim of this paper is to identify strategic groups in a sector using security pricesas a starting point. The initial assumption is that the co-movement of certain common stocksprice residuals, once the effects of the market and industry have been removed from thereturns, show the existence of shared economic dimensions and common responses to certainspecific phenomena which are inherent when firms belong to the same strategic group. Themethodology that has been used has two basic stages. In the first one we use financia1 theorymulti-index models in order to obtain the residual returns, and in the second stage statisticalclustering techniques are used to find subclasses of firms with residuals behaving in a similarway through time. As a result, three strategic groups are identified in the Spanish bankingindustry, and the relative instability in the structure of groups is proved for the periodconsidered. El objetivo de este trabajo consiste en identificar grupos estratégicos en una industriaa partir de las cotizaciones bursátiles. La hipótesis de partida es que el comovimiento de los residuos de ciertas acciones, una vez eliminados en la rentabilidad los efectos del mercado y de la industria, delataría la existencia de dimensiones económicas compartidas y de respuestas comunes a ciertos fenómenos no sistemáticos que caracterizarían la pertenencia de determinadas empresas a un mismo grupo estratégico. La metodología utilizada consta básicamente de dos etapas. En la primera se utilizan los modelos factoriales de la teoría financiera en orden a obtener los residuos, y en la segunda se emplean técnicas estadísticas de agrupamiento para encontrar conjuntos de empresas cuyos residuos tienden a comportarse de forma similar a lo largo del tiempo. Como resultado de la aplicación de esta metodología al sector bancario español se identifican tres grupos estratégicos, y se prueba la relativa inestabilidad de la estratificación intraindustrial estimada en el período considerado.
