This thesis analyzes the phenomenon of home bias in the context of European sovereign debt, examining to what extent banks, financial intermediaries, and private investors prefer to hold domestic debt securities rather than diversify their portfolios according to theoretical models such as the Capital Asset Pricing Model. Beginning with a definition of home bias as the tendency of investors to favor domestic securities due to familiarity and perceived security, the analysis focuses on the European context, exploring the causes and effects of this phenomenon and its evolution from the euro’s inception to the present day.
La tesi analizza il fenomeno dell’home bias nel contesto del debito sovrano europeo, studiando in che misura banche, intermediari finanziari e risparmiatori privati preferiscano detenere titoli di debito domestico, piuttosto che diversificare i propri portafogli in linea con modelli teorici come il Capital Asset Pricing Model. Partendo da una definizione di home bias come la tendenza degli investitori a preferire titoli nazionali per familiarità e percezione di sicurezza, l’analisi si concentra sul contesto europeo, esplorando le cause e gli effetti del fenomeno, e la sua evoluzione dalla nascita dell’euro a oggi.

Abstract
This thesis analyzes the phenomenon of home bias in the context of European sovereign debt, examining to what extent banks, financial intermediaries, and private investors prefer to hold domestic debt securities rather than diversify their portfolios according to theoretical models such as the Capital Asset Pricing Model. Beginning with a definition of home bias as the tendency of investors to favor domestic securities due to familiarity and perceived security, the analysis focuses on the European context, exploring the causes and effects of this phenomenon and its evolution from the euro’s inception to the present day.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
