چکیده
We propose a method for defining and measuring the spatial contagion between two financial markets. Next we investigate which from the large family of multivariate GARCH models is the best tool for modeling spatial contagion.

Copula-based Multivariate GARCH Model with Uncorrelated Dependent Errors∗
Multivariate GARCH (MGARCH) models are usually estimated under multivariate normality. In this paper, for non-elliptically distributed financial returns, we propose copula-based multivariate GARCH (C-MGARCH) model with uncorrelated dependent errors, which are generated through a linear combination of dependent random variables. The dependence structure is controlled by a copula function. Our ne...
متن کاملComposed and Factor Composed Multivariate GARCH Models
In this paper we present a new type of multivariate GARCH model which we call the composed MGARCH and factor composed MGARCH models. We show sufficient conditions for the covariance stationarity of these processes and proof of the invariance of the models under linear combinations, an important property for factor modeling. Furthermore, we introduce an α-stable version of these models and fit a...
متن کاملRobust M-estimation of multivariate GARCH models
In empirical work on multivariate financial time series, it is common to postulate a Multivariate GARCH model. We show that the popular Gaussian quasi-maximum likelihood estimator of MGARCH models is very sensitive to outliers in the data. We propose to use robust M-estimators and provide asymptotic theory for M-estimators of MGARCH models. The Monte Carlo study and empirical application docume...
متن کاملNews and Correlations of CEEC-3 Financial Markets
We investigate conditional correlations between six CEEC-3 financial markets estimated by DCC-MGARCH models. In general, the highest correlations exist between Hungary and Poland in foreign exchange and stock markets. Short-term money markets are rather isolated from each other. We find that the associations of CEEC-3 exchange rates versus the euro are weaker than those versus the US dollar. Th...
متن کاملRobust ranking of multivariate GARCH models by problem dimension
During the last 15 years, several Multivariate GARCH (MGARCH) models have appeared in the literature. Recent research has begun to examine MGARCH specifications in terms of their out-of-sample forecasting performance. We provide an empirical comparison of alternative MGARCH models, namely BEKK, DCC, Corrected DCC (cDCC), CCC, OGARCH Exponentially Weighted Moving Average, and covariance shrinkin...
