The theory of conditional copulas provides a means of constructing flexible multivariate density models, allowing for time-varying conditional densities of each individual variable, and for time-varying conditional dependence between the variables. Further, the use of copulas in constructing...

This paper proposes a new class of copula-based dynamic models for high dimension conditional distributions, facilitating the estimation of a wide variety of measures of systemic risk. Our proposed models draw on successful ideas from the literature on modeling high dimension covariance matrices...
