We study the joint credit risk in the UK banking sector using the weekly CDS spreads of global systemically important banks over 2007-2015. We show that the time-varying and asymmetric dependence structure of the CDS spread changes is closely related to the joint default probability that two or...

We study a relation between higher order comoments and dependence structure of equity portfolio in the US and UK by relying on a simple portfolio approach where equity portfolios are sorted on the higher order comoments. We find that beta and coskewness are positively related with a copula...

We investigate the dynamic and asymmetric dependence structure between equity portfolios from the US and UK. We demonstrate the statistical significance of dynamic asymmetric copula models in modelling and forecasting market risk. First, we construct "high-minus-low" equity portfolios sorted on...

We study the asymmetric and dynamic dependence between financial assets and demonstrate, from the perspective of risk management, the economic significance of dynamic copula models. First, we construct stock and currency portfolios sorted on different characteristics (ex ante beta, coskewness,...
