We introduce a new meaure of risk appetite in financial markets, based on the cross sectional behavior of excess … returns. Turning them into probabilities through a Markov Switching model, we define one global risk appetite measure as the … cross-sectional average of the individual probabilities for each asset to be in a "risk appetite" regime. Given the …

We propose a proxy for a climate risk factor, the pollutive-minus-clean (PMC) portfolio, which captures differences in … obtain estimates of asset-level climate risk exposure: 'carbon beta'. Validation of carbon betas confirms that variation in … climate risk exposures aligns with our prior expectations. Our measure has desirable properties regarding availability …

The dynamic of systematic risk across time and frequency is analyzed to investigate stock risk … time-frequency CAPM to perform systematic risk analysis and portfolio allocation. … characteristics. We use a daily panel of French stocks from 2012 to 2022. Results show that varying systematic risk varies in time and …

We investigate the dynamics of the relationship between returns and extreme downside risk in different states of the … market by combining the framework of Bali, Demirtas, and Levy (2009) with a Markov switching mechanism. We show that the risk … periods of market turbulence. This is puzzling since it is during such periods that downside risk should be most prominent. We …

I examine the impact of financial sector stress on risk sharing in a novel setting: the CME's weather derivatives … financial sector stress, the risk premium on futures and implied volatility of options increase significantly. The effects are … greatest for high margin and high total risk contracts. Consistent with a decline in the supply of financial capital during …

We propose new systematic tail risk measures constructed using two different approaches. The first extends the … market crash risk. Both tail risk measures are associated with a significantly positive risk premium after controlling for … other measures of downside risk, including downside beta, co-skewness and co-kurtosis. Using these measures, we examine the …

Standard risk management approaches fail to consider parameter uncertainty, which has led to improper risk management …
