This paper analyzes deviations from uncovered interest rate parity which are interpreted as indicator of the substitutability of currencies. Backward recursive statistical tests and error correction models are applied to study the co-movement of interest rates, and rolling regressions are used...

Empirical techniques to assess market comovements are numerous from cointegration to dynamic conditional correlations. This paper uses the fractal properties of asset returns and presents estimations of Markov switching multifractal models [as MSM] to give new insights about short and long run...

Many researchers claim that the stock markets are getting more and more integrated. In other words, it is believed that there are stronger financial market linkages or co-movements among the stock markets around the globe. We attempt to determine whether there are financial market linkages or...

Discovery for Eastern European enterprises based on their cross-listing on Western European exchanges. Despite the fact that the crosslisting behavior of companies has been analyzed very actively since the mid-70s, many competing hypotheses exist, and the debate is far from reaching an end....

This paper examines the short- and long-term relationships between seven Central Eastern European (CEE) stock markets and two developed stock markets, namely the German market and the US market. Application of the Gonzalo and Granger (1995) methodology indicates that the examined stock markets...

This paper examines the impact of the establishment of the European Monetary Union (EMU) on the correlation among eleven EMU markets and the UK. We estimated an exponential GARCH-M (1,1) econometric specification, including in the mean equation two risk factors (the variance risk and the...

We use a vector-autoregression, with parameter estimates corrected for small-sample bias, to decompose US and German unexpected bond returns into three 'news' components: news about future inflation, news about future real interest rates, and news about future excess bond returns (term premia)....

In this paper, returns and volatility spillovers between emerging capital markets of Central and Eastern Europe, Latin America, and South-East Asia are investigated. We extend the existing empirical evidence on financial spillovers by distinguishing between linkages among countries located in...
