To improve the dynamic assessment of risks of speculative assets, we apply a Markov switching MGARCH approach to portfolio forecasting. More specifically, we take advantage of the flexible Markov switching copula multivariate GARCH (MS-C-MGARCH) model of Fülle and Herwartz (2021). As an...

This study proposes a GARCH copula quantile regression model to capture the downside and upside tail dependence between oil price change and stock market returns at different risk levels. In the model, ten copulas are provided to measure the nonlinearity of the tail dependence with the marginal...

The question of whether environmental, social, and governance investments outperform or underperform other conventional financial investments has been debated in the literature. In this study, we compare the volatility of rates of return of selected ESG indices and conventional ones and...

A prominent challenge when drawing causal inference using observational data is the ubiquitous presence of endogenous regressors. The classical econometric method to handle regressor endogeneity requires instrumental variables that must satisfy the stringent condition of exclusion restriction,...

Distributed sensor networks with hundreds of antenna arrays are widely utilized for radar detection systems. When observations of network nodes are correlated, an optimal copula-based fusion (termed CBF) rule is designed for correlated binary decisions under the Neyman-Pearson (NP) framework....

This paper proposes a novel event-based simulation model for assessing the explicit demand response potential of electric vehicle (EV) charging networks. The model utilizes multivariate copulas in generation of realistic artificial charging events that retain the complex dependency structures...

This paper studies how to construct and compare various optimal portfolio frame-works for investors in the context of the Vietnamese stock market. The aim of the study is to help investors to find solutions for constructing an optimal portfolio strategy using modern investment frameworks in the...

A new Archimedean copula family is presented that was derived from the SAHARA utility function introduced in the economic literature in 2011. Its properties are discussed, and its flexibility and versatility are demonstrated. It is left tail decreasing or right tail increasing, but unlike...

This paper investigates whether currency risk is priced differently in the different sectors (industrial, financial, and basic materials) of equity markets in a sample of developed United States of America (USA) and developing economies (Brazil, India, Poland, and South Africa). The paper makes...
