Abstract/Description

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of announcements of re-composition of All Shares Islamic Index of Pakistan commonly known as PSX-KMI All Share Islamic Index of Pakistan on the Turnover and Returns of included and excluded companies; because of growing interest of individual and institutional investors in Shariah compliant stocks.

Research Approach: The quantitative approach has been applied in this research, using secondary data of companies included and excluded, due to re-composition of PSX-KMI All Share Islamic Index, surrounding around four (04) announcements with three months’ pre-notice period and one-month post-notice period. This secondary data was retrieved using Eikon Refinitiv DataStream. The Event Study approach was used to examine the effect of re-composition announcement on Abnormal Turnover and Abnormal returns, surrounding the announcement period.

Findings: The study found that there is insignificant impact on Abnormal Turnover and Abnormal Returns of included and excluded companies, due to the announcement of re-composition of PSX-KMI All Share Islamic index of Pakistan

Practical implications: This study may contribute to the knowledge base of regulatory intervention (announcement reaction) and its impact on the performance of listed stocks.
