China's Chengtou bond has dual positions of ``corporate bond" and ``quasi-municipal bond", and its tail risk is extremely contagious. We construct provincial and municipal risk indexes based on the microdata of 15029 Chengtou bonds which exist from 2009 to 2021. Further, we study the tail risk...

Cross-exchange trading induces risk spillover in the crypto market, especially for centralized exchanges, which compound crypto volatility and counterparty risk. We propose a Multivariate Heterogeneous AutoRegression for Crypto Market (MHAR-CM) to specifically investigate interconnectedness...

Principal component analysis (PCA) is a widely used dimension reduction tool in the analysis of many kind of high-dimensional data. It is used in signal processing, mechanical engineering, psychometrics, and other fields under different names. It still bears the same mathematical idea: the...

Principal component analysis (PCA) is a widely used dimension reduction tool in the analysis of high-dimensional data. However, in many applications such as risk quantification in finance or climatology, one is interested in capturing the tail variations rather than variation around the mean. In...

Weather derivatives are contingent claims with payo based on a pre-speci ed weather index. Firms exposed to weather risk can transfer it to nancial markets via weather derivatives. We develop a utility-based model for pricing baskets of weather derivatives in over-the-counter markets under...

Weather derivatives are contingent claims with payoff based on a pre-specified weather index. Firms exposed to weather risk can transfer it to financial markets via weather derivatives. We develop a utility-based model for pricing baskets of weather derivatives under default risk on the issuer...

Different weather events play an important role for industries with profits depending on temperature or other weather conditions. A market for trading on temperature events has recently emerged. The traded financial contracts allowing to transfer weather risks are called weather derivatives. The...

In this paper we adapt a dynamic discrete choice model to examine the aggregated demand for single- and multi-year crop insurance contracts. We show that in a competitive insurance market with heterogeneous risk averse farmers, there is simultaneous demand for both insurance contracts. Moreover,...

Due to dependency of energy demand on temperature, weather derivatives enable the effective hedging of temperature related fluctuations. However, temperature varies in space and time and therefore the contingent weather derivatives also vary. The spatial derivative price distribution involves a...

Many industries are exposed to weather risk which they can transfer on financial markets via weather derivatives. Equilibrium models based on partial market clearing became a useful tool for pricing such kind of financial instruments. In a multi-period equilibrium pricing model agents rebalance...
