Abstract

The paper investigates market volatility on the example of Sarajevo Stock Exchange at the
time of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak. Sarajevo10 index was chosen and analysed as
a representative of this stock market for the period 1 April 2019 - 10 March 2021. Generalized
Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) model was used to analyse the
abovementioned index. The results showed that, for the observed period, the return of the chosen index
satisfied АRMA(0,0)-GARCH(1,1) process. A significant rise in the volatility of the Sarajevo10 index
return was noticed at the beginning of COVID-19 outbreak. Furthermore, the results show a significant
volatility of this index return both prior to COVID-19 pandemic outbreak and during the pandemic.
