This paper proposes a risk measure, based on first-passage probability, which reflects intra-horizon risk in jump … models with finite or infinite jump activity. Our empirical investigation shows, first, that the proposed risk measure … consistently exceeds the benchmark Value-at-Risk (VaR). Second, jump risk tends to amplify intra-horizon risk. Third, we find large …

Sudden and uncertain events often cause cross-contagion of risk among various sectors of the macroeconomy. This paper … uncertainty risk on macroeconomics. Then, the high-dimensional DSGE model (DSGE-SV-t) is developed to examine the impact of … uncertainty risk on the transmission mechanism among macroeconomic sectors. The empirical research found that uncertainty risk …
