Dynamic linkages among cross-currency swap markets under stress
This article examines the impacts of the European sovereign debt crisis on the Dynamic Conditional Correlation (DCC) between three European currencies (EUR, CHF and GBP) and the US dollar for 1-year maturities. We found that the correlation between each pair of the swap prices significantly fluctuated over time and exhibited a higher co-movement during the crisis period, suggesting a higher degree of market integration. Importantly, applying a linear regression framework with a crisis dummy variable to the derived DCC, we find evidence of spillover effects of the sovereign debt turbulence to the cross-currency swap markets, as reflected in the increased co-movement between the EUR/USD and CHF/USD swap prices.
