The impact of the policy interest rate on stock market value : A Quantitative Study on the Relationship Between the Policy Interest Rate and Market Value of Swedish Listed Real Estate Companies During the Period 2015–2024 (Swedish)
Abstract [sv]

Denna studie undersöker sambandet mellan förändringar i Riksbankens styrränta och utvecklingen av börsvärdet hos svenska börsnoterade fastighetsbolag under perioden 2015–2024, samt vilken betydelse bolagsspecifika och makroekonomiska faktorer har för värderingen. Genom deskriptiv statistik, korrelationsanalys och multipel regressionsanalys undersöker studien hur börsvärdet samvarierar med styrränta, skuldsättningsgrad, bolagsstorlek, kassaflöde, marknadens riskpremie, inflation och ROE.

Resultaten visar att styrräntan inte har något statistiskt signifikant samband med börsvärdet när övriga variabler kontrolleras för. Däremot uppvisar bolagsstorlek och marknadens riskpremie ett statistiskt signifikant samband med börsvärdet. Skuldsättningsgrad, kassaflöde, inflation och ROE visar inga självständiga effekter i modellen.

Analysen tar sin utgångspunkt i teorier såsom CAPM, DCF och EMH för att förklara hur räntor, risk och kassaflöden relaterar till företagsvärdering. Studien bidrar till en ökad förståelse för hur marknadens riskförväntningar och strukturella bolagsegenskaper har större betydelse för börsvärdet än faktiska förändringar i styrräntan inom den svenska fastighetssektorn under den studerade perioden.

Abstract [en]

This study investigates the relationship between changes in the Riksbank’s policy rate and the development of the market value of Swedish listed real estate companies during the period 2015–2024, as well as the significance of company-specific and macroeconomic factors for valuation. Through descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis, the study examines how market value co-varies with the policy rate, leverage, firm size, cash flow, market risk premium, inflation, and ROE.

The results show that the policy rate does not have a statistically significant relationship with market value when controlling for other variables. However, company size and the market risk premium exhibit a statistically significant relationship with market value. Leverage, cash flow, inflation, and ROE show no independent effects in the model.

The analysis is based on theories such as CAPM, DCF, and EMH to explain how interest rates, risk, and cash flows relate to firm valuation. The study contributes to an increased understanding of how market risk expectations and structural firm characteristics are of greater importance for market value than actual changes in the policy rate within the Swedish real estate sector during the studied period.
