Many industries are exposed to weather risk which they can transfer on financial markets via weather derivatives. Equilibrium models based on partial market clearing became a useful tool for pricing such kind of financial instruments. In a multi-period equilibrium pricing model agents rebalance...

In this paper we introduce the dynamic semiparametric factor model (DSFM) for electricity forward curves. The biggest advantage of our approach is that it not only leads to smooth, seasonal forward curves extracted from exchange traded futures and forward electricity contracts, but also to a...

Modelling the dynamics of credit derivatives is a challenging task in finance and economics. The recent crisis has shown that the standard market models fail to measure and forecast financial risks and their characteristics. This work studies risk of collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) by...

In klassischen Wahlmodellen wird davon ausgegangen, dass sich ein beobachtetes Verhalten durch einen nicht näher spezifizierbaren Evaluationsprozess des beobachteten Individuums ergibt. Ist die Aufdeckung dieses Prozesses von Interesse, stoßen reine Wahlmodelle schnell an ihre methodischen...

This paper shows how to identify the structural shocks of a Vector Autoregression(VAR) while at the same time estimating a dynamic stochastic generalequilibrium (DSGE) model that is not assumed to replicate the data generatingprocess. It proposes a framework to estimate the parameters of the VAR...

Context effects can have a major influence on brand choice behavior after the introduction ofa new product. Based on behavioral literature, several hypotheses about the effects of a newbrand on perception, preferences and choice behavior can be derived, but studies with realchoice data are still...

Due to its ability to allow and account for similarities between pairs of alternatives, the nested logit model is increasingly used in practical applications. However the fact that there are two different specifications of the nested logit model has not received adequate attention. The utility...

Die Berechnung des VaR führt zur Reduktion der Dimension des Raumes der Risikofaktoren. Die vorzunehmenden Vereinfachungen resultieren aus unterschiedlichen Beweggründen, z.B. technische Effizienz, Sachlogik der Ergebnisse und statistische Adäquanz des Modells. Im Kapitel 2 stellen wir drei...
