This book was released on 2015-11-24 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Factors Affecting Stock Market Volatility and Contagion: Thailand and South-East Asia Evidence provide an understanding of the dominant factors affecting stock market volatility in Thailand and measure the contagion effects of stock market volatility in Thailand on other South-East Asian stock markets. The study adopted quantitative methods in testing the research hypotheses. The multiple regression and GARCH models have been employed to examine the factors affecting Thailand stock market volatility. Also, the correlation coefficient and Granger causality tests were employed to hypothesis testing for contagion in South-East Asia. The study results indicate that the movements of major stock markets and political uncertainty have direct effects on stock market volatility, while the movements of oil prices have an indirect effect on firm performance. The contagion tests imply that the South-East Asian stock markets have a strong interrelationship in regards to market integration. However, the implementation of economic strategies and adaption of financial systems and regulation in each country can bring the stock market independent.

Book excerpt: The link between commodities prices and the business cycle, including variables such as real GDP, industrial production, unemployment, inflation, and market uncertainty, has often been debated in the macroeconomic literature. To quantify the impact of commodities on the economy, one can distinguish different modeling approaches. First, commodities can be represented as the pinnacle of cross-sectional financial asset prices. Second, price fluctuations due to seasonal variations, dramatic market changes, political and regulatory decisions, or technological shocks may adversely impact producers who use commodities as input. This latter effect creates the so-called 'commodities risk'. Additionally, commodities price fluctuations may spread to other sectors in the economy, via contagion effects. Besides, stronger investor interest in commodities may create closer integration with conventional asset markets; as a result, the financialization process also enhances the correlation between commodity markets and financial markets.Our objective in this book, Risk Factors and Contagion in Commodity Markets and Stocks Markets, lies in answering the following research questions: What are the interactions between commodities and stock market sentiment? Do some of these markets move together overtime? Did the financialization in energy commodities occur after the 2008 Global Financial Crisis? These questions are essential to understand whether commodities are driven only by their fundamentals, or whether there is also a systemic component influenced by the volatility present within the stock markets.

Book Synopsis Measuring Factors Affecting Financial Contagion by : Najakorn Khajonchotpanya

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thesis aims to develop a framework and a model of the fundamental-based contagion in the international stock market. Rather than studying the contagion effect directly across countries' stock markets as in past studies, this thesis assumes the distribution of stock market return is determined by a hidden process called the domestic fundamental, which is defned as the health of the economy, and study the contagion through the fundamentals. Under the framework proposed by this thesis, the mechanism of the fundamental-based contagion in the international stock market consists of two effects: the transmission of shocks and the shock amplification effects. The proposed model is estimated using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Then, results from the empirical study on the international stock market contagion between Japan - Thailand, Hong Kong- Thailand and the Us - Thailand reveals that financial linkage is the only transmision channel of shock to Thailand and that there is a significant evidence of the effect of shock amplication by the Thai fundamental. Thus, as the fnancial linkage gets larger, more external shocks would transmit to Thailand, and if the Thai fundamental is weak, it would suffer from the shocks more greatly. Lastly, this thesis finds that Thailand was affected by the fundamental of the US the most, and the effect of changes in the US fundamental on the Thai fundamental and stock market returns became more pronounced during the 2008 global fnancial crisis.
Book Synopsis No Contagion, Only Interdependence by : Kristin Forbes
Download or read book No Contagion, Only Interdependence written by Kristin Forbes and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines stock market co-movements. It begins with a discussion of several conceptual issues involved in measuring these movements and how to test for contagion. Standard tests examine if cross-market correlation in stock market returns increase during a period of crisis. The measure of cross-market correlations central to this standard analysis, however, is biased. The unadjusted correlation coefficient is conditional on market movements over the time period under consideration, so that during a period of turmoil when stock market volatility increases, standard estimates of cross-market correlations will be biased upward. It is straightforward to adjust the correlation coefficient to correct for this bias. The remainder of the paper applies these concepts to test for stock market contagion during the 1997 East Asian crises, the 1994 Mexican peso collapse, and the 1987 U.S. stock market crash. In each of these cases, tests based on the unadjusted correlation coefficients find evidence of contagion in several countries, while tests based on the adjusted coefficients find virtually no contagion. This suggests that high market co-movements during these periods were a continuation of strong cross-market linkages. In other words, during these three crises there was no contagion, only interdependence.
Book Synopsis Transmission of Volatility Between Stock Markets by : Mervyn A. King
Download or read book Transmission of Volatility Between Stock Markets written by Mervyn A. King and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates why, in October 1987, almost all stock markets fell together despite widely differing economic circumstances. The idea is that "contagion" between markets occurs as the result of attempts by rational agents to infer information from price changes in other markets. This provides a channel through which a "mistake" in one market can be transmitted to other markets. Hourly stock price data from New York, Tokyo and London during an eight month period around the crash offer support for the contagion model. In addition, the magnitude of the contagion coefficients are found to increase with volatility.
Book Synopsis International Financial Contagion by : Stijn Claessens
Download or read book International Financial Contagion written by Stijn Claessens and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No sooner had the Asian crisis broken out in 1997 than the witch-hunt started. With great indignation every Asian economy pointed fingers. They were innocent bystanders. The fundamental reason for the crisis was this or that - most prominently contagion - but also the decline in exports of the new commodities (high-tech goods), the steep rise of the dollar, speculators, etc. The prominent question, of course, is whether contagion could really have been the key factor and, if so, what are the channels and mechanisms through which it operated in such a powerful manner. The question is obvious because until 1997, Asia's economies were generally believed to be immensely successful, stable and well managed. This question is of great importance not only in understanding just what happened, but also in shaping policies. In a world of pure contagion, i.e. when innocent bystanders are caught up and trampled by events not of their making and when consequences go far beyond ordinary international shocks, countries will need to look for better protective policies in the future. In such a world, the international financial system will need to change in order to offer better preventive and reactive policy measures to help avoid, or at least contain, financial crises.
Book Synopsis On Financial Contagion and Implied Market Volatility by : Dimitris Kenourgios
Download or read book On Financial Contagion and Implied Market Volatility written by Dimitris Kenourgios and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates volatility contagion across U.S. and European stock markets during the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) and the Eurozone Sovereign Debt Crisis (ESDC). Using a sample of international implied volatility indices on daily changes, I explore asymmetric conditional correlation dynamics across stable and crisis periods and across the different phases of both crises. Empirical evidence indicates the existence of contagion in cross-market volatilities. A different pattern of infection is observed across the phases, since the early phase of the GFC and the late period of escalation of the Euro crisis are the most contagious periods. This implies that the initial signal of the two crises has been differently recognized by implied volatility markets. The results provide important implications for the effectiveness of international portfolio diversification and volatility hedging during periods of negative shocks.

Book Synopsis Contagion Effects and Volatility Impulse Responses Between US and Asian Stock Markets by : Sang Hoon Kang
Download or read book Contagion Effects and Volatility Impulse Responses Between US and Asian Stock Markets written by Sang Hoon Kang and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, we investigated volatility transmission effects be-tween the US and six Asian markets -- China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Singapore, and Taiwan -- using a bivariate GARCH-BEKK model. We also assessed the impact of shocks on stock market volatility using the volatility impulse response function (VIRF). Our empirical findings extend several recent reports. First, the empirical results of this study show that the US and Asian stock markets are interrelated by their volatility. Second, we found that the 2008 global financial crisis intensified volatility transmission across the US and Asian stock markets. Third, we found that one large shock, the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers, resulted in an increase in expected conditional volatilities in the post-bankruptcy era. Moreover, the magnitude and the persistence of the volatility impulse responses differed across Asian stock markets due to differing investor reactions to shocks in each market.
Book Synopsis Volatility Spillovers and Contagion from Mature to Emerging Stock Markets by : John Beirne
Download or read book Volatility Spillovers and Contagion from Mature to Emerging Stock Markets written by John Beirne and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines volatility spillovers from mature to emerging stock markets and tests for changes in the transmission mechanism - contagion - during turbulences in mature markets. Tri-variate GARCH-BEKK models of returns in global (mature), regional, and local markets are estimated for 41 emerging market economies (EMEs), with a dummy capturing parameter shifts during turbulent episodes. LR tests suggest that mature markets influence conditional variances in many emerging markets. Moreover, spillover parameters change during turbulent episodes. Conditional variances in most EMEs rise during these episodes, but there is only limited evidence of shifts in conditional correlations between mature and emerging markets.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume of "International Finance Review" focuses on the Asia-Pacific financial markets. A total of 22 original papers, not published elsewhere, have been selected from a competitive field. These papers utilize a variety of methods, including theoretical, empirical and qualitative to highlight a range of issues across the region. Several papers offer combinations of these different categories and among the empirical papers, there are a wide variety of datasets analyzed. While China does play a significant part in the analysis of five of the papers in this volume (this is to be expected given its importance in the region), a host of other countries are also considered. This ensures the volume is truly international in its scope. These papers each serve to contribute to the knowledge on a particular issue related to the financial markets within this region and for this volume, three main issues have been identified: integration, innovation and challenges. Articles are contributed by experts in their fields. It is truly international in scope.

This book was released on 2013-01-30 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews the literature on financial crises focusing on three specific aspects. First, what are the main factors explaining financial crises? Since many theories on the sources of financial crises highlight the importance of sharp fluctuations in asset and credit markets, the paper briefly reviews theoretical and empirical studies on developments in these markets around financial crises. Second, what are the major types of financial crises? The paper focuses on the main theoretical and empirical explanations of four types of financial crises—currency crises, sudden stops, debt crises, and banking crises—and presents a survey of the literature that attempts to identify these episodes. Third, what are the real and financial sector implications of crises? The paper briefly reviews the short- and medium-run implications of crises for the real economy and financial sector. It concludes with a summary of the main lessons from the literature and future research directions.

Download or read book Public Sector Crisis Management written by Alexander Rozanov and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-10-28 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term “crisis management” was applied to business only after the publication of the monograph “Crisis Management: Planning for the Inevitable” by Steven Fink in 1986. Since then, this term has turned from a journalistic cliche into a scientific concept, and its concept, theory, and methodology have been further developed.It is the turning point in the meaning of the word “crisis” that indicates the possibility of changing the situation by making decisions that contribute to changing the vector of development of events from destruction to recovery and further development. From the above, the general definition of the term “crisis management” follows as a process of saving the system from its destructive effects. The activity of the crisis manager is always temporary and stops as a result of a favorable overcoming of the crisis or vice versa—the destruction of the system. Therefore, the criterion for the success of a manager in emergency crisis management is effectiveness as an absolute measure of the presence or absence of a result—it either exists or does not exist.
