This article examines the comovement dynamics between the developed European stock markets of the United Kingdom, Germany, France and Austria. After applying a Dynamic Conditional Correlation-Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedastic (DCC-GARCH) and wavelet multiscale analysis on a...

Rapid credit growth has been one of the most pervasive developments in recent years in Central and Eastern Europe. Our estimates support the hypothesis that the growth of credit and the amount of available finance might harm banking performance and deteriorate non-performing loans (NPL)...

This article analyses dynamic tail dependence between the returns of the three largest Central and Eastern European (CEE) stock markets (Hungary, Czech Republic and Poland) and two major Eurozone stock markets (Germany and France). Tail dependence is modelled by a constant and dynamic...

This article examines a range of variables influencing non-performing loan (NPL) ratios in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Slovenia, as an indicator of the sustainability of banking sector results. Two basic conclusions were drawn from the empirical analysis. First, since the pro-cyclicality of...

<title>Abstract</title> This paper examines the systematic risk and validity of the basic capital asset pricing model of Sharpe (1964), Lintner (1965) and Mossin (1966) in three Central and Eastern European stock markets (i.e. Slovenia, Hungary and Czech Republic). The CAPM is tested on a multiscale basis,...

<title>Abstract</title> Rapid credit growth has been one of the most pervasive developments in recent years in Central and Eastern Europe. We tested for the significance of macroeconomic and banking sector variables that condition non‐performing loan ratios and the hypothesis of procyclicality between...

In this article, we investigate the Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) concept by utilizing a database of monthly real exchange rates from 12 Central and Eastern European economies with respect to different numeraire currencies. Owing to the elaborated limitations of linear specifications by...
