Özet

Yüksek miktarda sermaye gerektiren ve diğer yatırım alternatiflerine kıyasla yüksek risk içeren gemi yatırımları, denizcilik işletmeleri için oldukça önemlidir. Bu nedenle, gemi yatırımlarındaki dinamikleri anlamak önem arz etmektedir. Dolayısıyla bu çalışmada, Türk gemi yatırımcılarının gemi yatırımlarını etkileyen faktörlerin belirlenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, Türkiye'deki gemi yatırımcıları ile yakın ilişkileri olan ve söz konusu yatırımcıları objektif olarak değerlendirebilecek profesyonellerin bakış açılarına yönelik nitel bir araştırma yapılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular; Türkiye'de yatırım yapılacak gemi yatırımlarının değerlendirilmesinde; piyasa şartları ve zamanlama, yatırımın geri ödeme süresi, geminin teknik özellikleri ile yatırımcı profili, finansman kapasitesi ve risk algısının gemi yatırımlarında öne çıkan faktörler olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
