Measuring Financial Contagion: A Copula Approach
This paper studies financial contagion using a methodology that goes beyond the simple analysis of correlation breakdown, and, at the same time, is careful in the characterization of nonlinearity and asymptotic dependence. It also avoids discretion in the identification of the contagious episodes and in the definition of extreme outcomes. It accomplishes these objectives by the use of copulas w...
متن کاملPair-copula constructions for modeling exchange rate dependence
In order to capture the dependency among exchange rates we construct semiparametric multivariate copula models with ARMA-GARCH margins. As multivariate copula models we utilize pair-copula constructions (PCC) such as regular and canonical vines. As building blocks of the PCC’s we use bivariate t-copulas for different tail dependence between pairs of exchange rates. Alternatively we also conside...
متن کاملInformation Measures via Copula Functions
In applications of differential geometry to problems of parametric inference, the notion of divergence is often used to measure the separation between two parametric densities. Among them, in this paper, we will verify measures such as Kullback-Leibler information, J-divergence, Hellinger distance, -Divergence, … and so on. Properties and results related to distance between probability d...
متن کاملA Novel Bayesian Classifier using Copula Functions
A useful method for representing Bayesian classifiers is through discriminant functions. Here, using copula functions, we propose a new model for discriminants. This model provides a rich and generalized class of decision boundaries. These decision boundaries significantly boost the classification accuracy especially for high dimensional feature spaces. We strengthen our analysis through simula...
متن کاملA Theoretical Argument Why the t-Copula Explains Credit Risk Contagion Better than the Gaussian Copula
One of the key questions in credit dependence modelling is the specfication of the copula function linking the marginals of default variables. Copulae functions are important because they allow to decouple statistical inference into two parts: inference of the marginals and inference of the dependence. This is particularly important in the area of credit risk where information on dependence is ...
