This paper analyzes volatility spillovers in multivariate GARCH-type models. We show that the cross-effects between the conditional variances determine the persistence of the transmitted volatility innovations. In particular, the effect of a foreign volatility innovation on a conditional...

Novel periodic extensions of dynamic long memory regression models with autoregressive conditional heteroskedastic errors are considered for the analysis of daily electricity spot prices. The parameters of the model with mean and variance specifications are estimated simultaneously by the method...

In the last few years, copulas have been widely applied in many field of studies. Concentrating our attention on financial applications, we pursue the goal to detect multivariate atypical observations by extending to elliptical copulas the forward search originally introduced in linear and...

We propose using the Realized GARCH model to estimate the daily price volatility in the EPEX power markets. The model specification extracts the volatility-related information from realized measures, which substantially improves the in-sample fit of the data compared to the standard EGARCH...

This paper estimates the stock market and its price dynamics in terms of the multifractional Brownian motion. In our analysis, we use the financial dataset of the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) time series from March 2009 to June 2015. First, we briefly introduce the definitions and...

This paper extends the evolution equation of Patton (2006) for the time variation of the copula parameters by specifying an autoregressive fractionally integrated term. For any copula parameter there is a suitable one-to-one transformation so that the maximum likelihood estimation method may be...

This paper investigates the dynamics of aggregate wages and prices in the United States (US) and the Euro Area (EA) with a special focus on persistence of real wages, wage and price inflation. The analysis is conducted within a structural vector errorcorrection model, where the structural shocks...

The wavelet transform is used to identify a biannual and an annual seasonality in the Phelix Day Peak and to separate the long-term trend from its short-term motion. The short-term/long-term model for commodity prices of Schwartz & Smith (2000) is applied but generalised to account for weekly...

In this article, we derive a set of necessary and sufficient conditions for positivity of the vector conditional variance equation in multivariate GARCH models with explicit modelling of conditional correlation. These models include the constant conditional correlation GARCH model of Bollerslev...

World power and gas markets have a natural relationship with global tradable carbon permits markets, including the U.S. Clean Air Act Amendments and the EU Emissions Trading Scheme, the latter officially launched in January 2005. Electric utilities operate their power plants based in part on the...
