This study uses the BEKK-GARCH model to examine the return-and-volatility spillover between the world-leading markets (USA and China) and four emerging Latin American stock markets over the global financial crisis of 2008 and the crash of the Chinese stock market of 2015. Regarding return...

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether contagion actually occurred during three well-known financial crises in 1990s and 2000s: Mexican “Tequila” crisis in 1994, Asian “flu” crisis in 1997 and US subprime crisis in 2007. We apply dynamic conditional correlation models...

The current paper studies equity markets for the contagion of squared index returns as a proxy for stock market volatility, which has not been studied earlier. The study examines squared stock index returns of equity in 35 markets, including the US, UK, Euro Zone and BRICS (Brazil, Russia,...

We use intraday stock index return data from both sides of the Atlantic during overlapping trading hours to analyze the dynamic interactions between European and US stock markets. We are particularly interested in differences of information transmission before, during, and after the financial...

We examine whether there is contagion from the U.S. stock market to six Central and Eastern European stock markets. We use a novel measure of contagion that examines whether volatility shocks in the U.S. stock market coupled with negative returns are followed by higher co-exceedance between U.S....

In this paper, we analyse historical stock market volatility and co-movement behaviour of three emerging markets and three developed economies from January 2001 to December 2012. We find evidence that the sample of emerging economies exhibits higher stock market volatility during the study...

This paper investigates the occurrence of dependency between foreign exchange markets and stock markets in emerging market (EM) countries by testing volatility spillovers of asset returns using a BEKK GARCH (1,1) model. The author modifies the classical BEKK GARCH model in order to study the...

The interconnection of stock markets offers valuable insights into the broader dynamics of global financial markets. This study uses the Diebold and Yilmaz index model to analyze and measure volatility spillovers and interconnectedness among APEC stock markets. The objective is to identify major...

Using data from ten developed and seven emerging countries, we analyse stock market's volatility and the macroeconomic factors that influence stock market's volatility from January 2001 till December 2012. We use standard historical volatility model followed by Jones et al. (1998) and Andersen...

We examine the impact of COVID-19 (C-19) pandemic on global equity markets by constructing novel infection indices. Our results show that the impact of prompt and large-scale policy interventions is ambiguous yet statistically significant. However, in this equivocality, the impact of global...
