The sample period is divided into two sub-periods: before financial restructuring period (1994-2000) and post-financial restructuring period (2001-2010). The OLS framework is utilized to investigate the impact of financial restructuring on the risk determinants. For the majority of the stocks in the sample, the results point out that turnover and size are the most explanatory variables for systematic risk and unsystematic risk, respectively in two sub-periods. As for the comparison of the before and post-financial restructuring periods, the results indicate that there is not a significant change in risk factors, suggesting that investors risk preferences are same for the analyzed period.
