Abstract
The Corporation of Military Forces Social Security Organization (SATA) invests part of its capital in the Stock Market to enhance the interests of its stakeholders. As such, SATA is required to assess and manage the associated risks. SATA manages shares in several listed companies with the aim of maintaining and promoting financial discipline. The objective of this this study is to assess the risk of companies related to SATA, and thus provide strategies to control those risks. First, by employing the Fama-French regression model, the relationship between the returns of SATA-affiliated listed companies to systematic factors, and the amount of unsystematic risk is estimated using the remainder of the model. Thereafter, unsystematic commercial and financial risks were assessed to obtain better results. The obtained model of unsystematic risk indicates the following order in terms of risk (from higher to low risk); Faravar, Hafari, Fajr, Toril, Vetoka, Kowsar, Parsan, Vaghdir and Maroon symbols. The Fajr, Faravar, Hafari and Toril symbols have an undesirable commercial risk. In terms of financial performance Toril, Hafari, Faravar, Fajr and Parsan symbols have recorded the lowest financial stability respectively. In terms of industry, the insurance group has a good financial and commercial performance, while the transportation and base metals industry have poor performance in both in terms of commercial and financial risks. Moreover, the petrochemical industry has good business performance and high financial risk, while the performance of multidisciplinary investment companies show approximately zero risk.
