This study investigated determinants of stock betas of shipping companies in Korea. Beta is a measurement of sensitivity of an individual stock to the movement of the whole stock market. It is widely accepted that stock betas are not constant, but time-varying, which implies that they are affected by other factors. In this regard, this study examined betas of six shipping companies listed on the Korea Exchange for the period of 2000-2021 and their relationship with financial leverage, operating leverage, and cyclicality in the shipping market. Empirical analysis showed that betas of Korean shipping companies were positively associated with financial and operating leverages but negatively with cyclicality.
