Using futures prices and analysts' forecasts to estimate agricultural commodity risk premiums

Cortazar, Gonzalo; Ortega, Hector; Pérez, José Antonio - In: Risks : open access journal 13 (2025) 1, pp. 1-21

This paper presents a novel 5-factor model for agricultural commodity risk premiums, an approach not explored in previous research. The model is applied to the specific cases of corn, soybeans, and wheat. Calibration is achieved using a Kalman filter and maximum likelihood, with data from...

Hedging effectiveness of commodity futures contracts to minimize price risk : empirical evidence from the Italian field : crop sector

Penone, Carlotta; Giampietri, Elisa; Trestini, Samuele - In: Risks : open access journal 9 (2021) 12, pp. 1-14

Over the last years, farmers have been increasingly exposed to income risk due to the volatility of the commodities prices. Among others, hedging in futures markets (i.e., financial markets) represents an available strategy for producers to cope with income risks at farm level. To better...

Price discovery and market reflexivity in agricultural futures contracts with different maturities

Volkenand, Steffen; Filler, Günther; Odening, Martin - In: Risks : open access journal 8 (2020) 3/75, pp. 1-17

The purpose of this paper is to analyze market reflexivity in agricultural futures contracts with different maturities. To this end, we apply a four-dimensional Hawkes model to storable and non-storable agricultural commodities. We find market reflexivity for both storable and non-storable...

Carl and his pot : measuring risks in commodity markets

Algieri, Bernardina; Leccadito, Arturo - In: Risks : open access journal 8 (2020) 1/27, pp. 1-15

The present study aims at modelling market risk for four commodities, namely West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil, natural gas, gold and corn for the period 2007-2017. To this purpose, we use Extreme Value Theory (EVT) together with a set of Conditional Auto-Regressive Logit (CARL) models to...

Commodity market risk : examining price co-movements in the Pakistan mercantile exchange

Shear, Falik; Bilal, Muhammad; Ashraf, Badar Nadeem; … - In: Risks : open access journal 12 (2024) 6, pp. 1-15

Commodity price co-movements significantly impact investment decisions. High correlations constrain portfolio diversification and limit risk mitigation potential. While international markets often exhibit strong price linkages, understanding national-level dynamics is crucial for effective...

Pricing of commodity derivatives on processes with memory

Benth, Fred Espen; Khedher, Asma; Vanmaele, Michèle - In: Risks : open access journal 8 (2020) 1/8, pp. 1-32

Spot option prices, forwards and options on forwards relevant for the commodity markets are computed when the underlying process S is modelled as an exponential of a process xi with memory as, e.g., a Volterra equation driven by a Levy process. Moreover, the interest rate and a risk premium rho...

. The new performance indexes incorporating high moments and disaster risk are the Aumann-Serrano performance index and … Foster-Hart performance index proposed by Kadan and Liu. These performance indexes provide evaluations sensitive to the … literature, we show by the regression analysis of the index and summary statistics these indexes are in fact not excessively …

Trading binary options using expected profit and loss metrics

Venter, Johannes Hendrik; Jongh, Pieter Juriaan de - In: Risks : open access journal 10 (2022) 11, pp. 1-21

Trading in binary options is discussed using an approach based on expected profit (EP) and expected loss (EL) as metrics of reward and risk of trades. These metrics are reviewed and the role of the EL/EP ratio as an indicator of quality of trades, taking risk tolerance into account, is...

Deep equal risk pricing of financial derivatives with non-translation invariant risk measures

Carbonneau, Alexandre; Godin, Frédéric - In: Risks : open access journal 11 (2023) 8, pp. 1-27

The objective is to study the use of non-translation invariant risk measures within the equal risk pricing (ERP) methodology for the valuation of financial derivatives. The ability to move beyond the class of convex risk measures considered in several prior studies provides more flexibility...
