Abstract

En este artículo se estima el coste de capital para una muestra amplia de entidades financieras europeas. Para ello, se consideran dos métodos principales: i) un modelo de descuento de dividendos para un índice general de mercado, conjuntamente con un modelo unifactorial para estimar el coste de capital de las entidades cotizadas individuales, y ii) un modelo multifactorial de series temporales que combina factores de los mercados de renta variable y de renta fija. Se encuentra que, si bien los dos enfoques producen, en general, resultados similares, tanto en lo que respecta a sus niveles como a la dinámica de las series temporales, las discrepancias entre ambos pueden ser sustanciales. En definitiva, el modelo de descuento de dividendos es un enfoque menos intensivo en datos, que puede ser más efectivo para realizar un seguimiento del coste de capital en tiempo real. En cambio, los modelos multifactoriales son más intensivos en datos y, por lo tanto, menos adecuados para un seguimiento regular. Sin embargo, al mismo tiempo, esta última metodología es más útil para capturar el impacto de desarrollos que no capta el índice general de mercado, gracias a su estructura multifactorial.
