Modelling Volatility Spillover Effects Between Developed Stock Markets and Asian Emerging Stock Markets
Econometrics Working Paper EWP1301 ISSN 1485-6441 Department of Economics Modelling Volatility Spillover Effects Between Developed Stock Markets and Asian Emerging Stock Markets Yanan Li & David E. Giles Department of Economics, University of Victoria September 2013 Abstract This paper examines the linkages of stock markets across the U.S., Japan and six Asian developing countries: China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand over the period January 1, 1993 to December 31, 2012. The volatility spillover is modeled through an asymmetric multivariate GARCH model. We find significant unidirectional shock and volatility spillovers from the U.S. market to both the Japanese and the Asian emerging markets. It is also found that the volatility spillovers between the U.S. market and the Asian markets are stronger and bidirectional during the Asian financial crisis. Further, during the last five years, the linkages between the Japanese market and the Asian emerging markets became more apparent. Our paper contributes to the literature by examining both the long run and the short run periods and focusing on shock and volatility spillovers rather than return spillovers, which have been the primary focus of most other studies.

Metodología: son realizados los siguientes procedimientos en un portafolio con los índices bursátiles del G20: 1) son estimados los estadísticos descriptivos y los parámetros α-estables de los rendimientos, 2) es aplicada una prueba de bondad de ajuste para validar los procesos α-estables, 3) es estimada la matriz de covariación para calcular las asignaciones de los portafolios, y 4) son estimados los indicadores de riesgo sistemático. Resultados: La frontera eficiente es calculada sin ventas en corto y muestra que los portafolios α-estables presentan mayor aversión al riesgo que los portafolios gaussianos, y que los portafolios α-estables son más eficientes con respecto a la relación rendimiento y riesgo. Recomendaciones: La aplicación de procesos α- Resumen estables para modelar la leptocurtosis, la asimetría y los cúmulos de volatilidad. Limitaciones: El análisis multivariado α-estable presenta diferentes parámetros de estabilidad. Originalidad: Los rendimientos del G20 son modelados con procesos α-estables y es realizado un análisis de sensibilidad. Conclusión: El análisis α- estable permite cuantificar el riesgo de mercado más adecuadamente que el análisis gaussiano.
