This paper aims to examine the connectedness between green and conventional assets, particularly during the period of economic downturn. Specifically, we examine quantile-based time-varying connectedness between the green bond market and other financial assets using quantile vector...

Based on previous research addressing the use of principal component analysis (PCA) in modeling the dynamics of sovereign yield curves, in this paper, we investigate certain characteristics of the Romanian government bond market. We perform PCA on data between March 2019 and March 2022, with...
