Problemy Zarzadzania, 2018, vol. 16, issue 76, 11-23 Abstract: The authors analyze the sensitivity of the beta parameter from Sharpe’s single-index model to the change of market index. The estimation was made for twelve largest companies of the Warsaw Stock Exchange in the period 2005–2015 with the usage of three return intervals: daily, weekly and monthly. The results are applicative and indicate that in the case of daily data it is important whether the market index is WIG or WIG20. When the frequency of measurement is reduced, the impact of this change is stronger. The sensitivity of the beta parameter to the change of the market index is greater (daily data) but decreases with an increase of the return interval measurement. A change of the market index does not affect the parameters of the stochastic structure of the estimated model.
