The trade and FDI effects of EMU enlargement

Brouwer, Jelle; Paap, Richard; Viaene, Jean-Marie - 2007

This paper considers the nature and the distribution of trade and FDI effects of a potential enlargement of the European Monetary Union (EMU) to the 10 countries that obtained EU membership in 2004. One-way and two-way error component gravity models are estimated using a data set of unbalanced...

Price discovery on foreign exchange markets with differentially informed traders

Jong, Frank de; Mahieu, Ronald J.; Schotman, Peter C.; … - 1999

This paper uses Reuters exchange rate data to investigate thecontributions to the price discovery process by individual banks in theforeign exchange market. We propose multivariate time series models aswell as models in tick time to study the dynamic relations between thequotes of individual...

Inference for adaptive time series models : stochastic volatility and conditionally Gaussian state space form

Bos, Charles S.; Shephard, Neil G. - 2004

In this paper we replace the Gaussian errors in the standard Gaussian, linear state space model with stochastic volatility processes. This is called a GSSF-SV model. We show that conventional MCMC algorithms for this type of model are ineffective, but that this problem can be removed by...

The impact of central bank FX interventions on currency components

Beine, Michel; Bos, Charles S.; Laurent, Sebastian - 2005

This paper is the first attempt to assess the impact of official FOREX interventions of the three major central banks in terms of the dynamics of the currency components of the major exchange rates (EUR/USD and YEN/USD) over the period 1989-2003. We identify the currency components of the mean...

Herding, a-synchronous updating and heterogeneity in memory in a CBS

Diks, Cees G. H.; Weide, Roy van der - 2003

predicts MA(1) structure with a negative coeffient. Asynchronous updating leads to an MA(1) model for returns with GARCH($1 …,1$) innovations, and predicts a relation between the ARCH and GARCH coefficients. Heterogeneity in memory leads to long … coefficient and the relation between the ARCH and GARCH coefficients for exchange rate data. …

Why frequency matters for unit root testing

Boswijk, Herman Peter; Klaassen, Franc - 2004 - Rev.

It is generally believed that for the power of unit root tests, only the time span and not the observation frequency matters. In this paper we show that the observation frequency does matter when the high-frequency data display fat tails and volatility clustering, as is typically the case for...

A hybrid joint moment ratio test for financial time series

Groenendijk, Patrick A.; Lucas, André; Vries, Casper G. de - 1998

We advocate the use of absolute moment ratio statistics in conjunctionwith standard variance ratio statistics in order to disentangle lineardependence, non-linear dependence, and leptokurtosis in financial timeseries. Both statistics are computed for multiple return horizonssimultaneously, and...

Intraday price discovery in fragmented markets

Ozturk, Sait; Wel, Michel van der; Dijk, Dick van - 2014

For many assets, trading is fragmented across multiple exchanges. Price discovery measures summarize the informativeness of trading on each venue for discovering the assetś true underlying value. We explore intraday variation in price discovery using a structural model with time-varying...
