Using high-frequency data, this study investigates price discovery in the newly established stock index (CSI300) futures market in China. Our empirical results reveal new evidence that the CSI300 index futures market play a dominant role in the price discovery process about one year after its...

This study examines the impact of the CSI 300 index futures on the underlying spot market in terms of feedback trading model. A univariate AR-GJR-GARCH-M model and a bivariate VECM–GARCH-M model are employed for the analysis. Our research reveals that the CSI 300 stock index futures market...

In this paper, we assess the hedging performance of the newly established CSI 300 stock index futures over some short hedging horizons. We use wavelet analysis as well as conventional models (naïve, ordinary least squares, and error-correction) to compute the constant hedge ratios. The constant...

In this paper, we consider a Sparre-Andersen risk model with two-sided jumps, where the downward jumps represent the claims as usual and the upward jumps are also allowed to explain random gains. A generalized discounted penalty function is studied by using random walk techniques and the renewal...

Semivarying coefficient partially linear model is a very inclusive semiparametric model, which contains the partially linear model and varying coefficient model as its special cases. In this paper, we consider the empirical-likelihood-based inference for a semivarying coefficient partially...

This paper studies a Sparre Andersen model in which the inter-claim times are generalized Erlang(n) distributed. We assume that the premium rate is a step function depending on the current surplus level. A piecewise integro-differential equation for the Gerber-Shiu discounted penalty function is...

In this paper, we extend the compound binomial risk model to a Markov dependent model in which the claim occurrence and the claim amount are both regulated by a discrete time Markov process. The explicit expression for the "discounted" joint probability function of the surplus before ruin and...

In this paper, we consider a perturbed compound Poisson risk model with multi-layer dividend strategy. Integro-differential and integral equations for the expected discounted penalty function are derived and solved. When the claims are subexponentially distributed, the asymptotic formula for...

In this paper, we study the absolute ruin problems in a multi-layer compound Poisson model with constant interest force. The piecewise integro-differential equation for the Gerber-Shiu discounted penalty function is derived, and some explicit expressions are given when the claims are...
