Abstract

This paper investigates the correlation between the persistent impact of the epidemic on investment risk in the post-epidemic period and the response measures. A high correlation is found between market performance and policies introduced due to the ongoing impact of the epidemic. Further validation is provided by using the CSI 300 as a reference portfolio and by selecting ten stocks from the CSI 300 in the capital markets services sector to calculate the correlation coefficient between the latter and the former. It is found that placing assets in capital market services companies leads to lower investment risk, and the correlation between investment risk and the ongoing impact of the epidemic is moderately low. However, placing assets in capital markets services firms is not a better choice currently if investors want to obtain a higher return on their assets.
