Title: Selecting Various Industrial Competitors Affect The Risk Level of Viet Nam Natural Gas and Oil Industry
Abstract: Using a one factor model, this paperwork estimates the impacts of the size of firms’ competitors in the natural gas and oil industry on the market risk level, measured by equity and asset beta, of 15 listed companies in this category.
