The impact that oil market shocks have on stock markets of oil-related economies has several implications for both domestic and foreign investors. Thus, we investigate the role of the oil market in deriving the dynamic linkage between stock markets of oil-exporting and oil-importing countries....

This paper empirically analyzes in a time-varying context if the U.S. corporate Credit Default Swaps (CDS) and bond markets of 81 reference entities reflect the same information on their prices between October 2004 and December 2010, using OTC traded CDS. The analysis shows that frictions in the...

The interrelationship between international stock markets is becoming a key issue in international portfolio managment and risk measurement. The dynamics of security returns and their risk characteristics have a crucial role in the financial market's therory. Recent empirical studies have tested...

This paper studies the nature of volatility spillovers across countries from the perspective of network theory and by relying on data of US-listed ETFs. I use a Lasso-related technique to estimate the International Volatility Network (IVN) where the nodes correspond to large-cap international...

In this study, we examine the propagation of return-spillovers within a network comprising various Islamic sectoral stocks and the price of Brent crude oil. To achieve that, we extend the work of Antonakakis et al. (2020a), by introducing measures of asymmetric dynamic connectedness based on a...

Employing a time-varying volatility transmission model, this study examines the impact of asymmetric information and uncertainty on the interactions across energy and foreign exchange markets. The results show that the ARCH coefficients monitoring the impact for the "own" shocks (currency on...

In this study we analyse the evolution of interdependence and relative influence of major international stock markets in the three main geographical regions of USA, Europe and Asia around the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) of 2007. Using the framework of the Foreign Information Transmission (FIT)...

This paper investigates the dynamics of aggregate wages and prices in the UnitedStates (US) and the Euro Area (EA) with a special focus on persistence of real wages,wage and price inflation. The analysis is conducted within a structural vector errorcorrectionmodel, where the structural shocks...

The wavelet transform is used to identify a biannual and an annual seasonalityin the Phelix Day Peak and to separate the long-term trend from its short-termmotion. The short-term/long-term model for commodity prices of Schwartz &Smith (2000) is applied but generalised to account for weekly...

In this paper we study the short term price behavior of December 2008 future prices for EU emissionallowances. We model returns and volatility dynamics of this price showing that a standard ARMA-GARCHframework is not adequate and that the gaussianity assumption is rejected due to the occurrence...
