Sažetak

The purpose of the article is an assessment of risk, profitability and value as well as the relationships between these parameters for fifteen leading steel producers in the world. The research methodology uses return on assets, beta coefficient and price/book value ratio (P/BV). The research results allow us to verify negatively two research hypotheses: H1 – The largest steel producers in the world achieve a high level of return on assets and are specific for a lower risk level than the branch one; and H2 – Market value of the leading steel producers with high return on assets is higher than the book value of these enterprises.
