Modelling Asymmetric Dependence of Financial Returns with Multivariate Dynamic Copulas

We propose a multidimensional extension for Patton's (2006) bivariate Dynamic Copulas. We also introduce a Dynamic Mixture Copula whose parameters and weights follow well defined dynamic processes. Both approaches are more flexible to adapt to financial data than currently available Copula models. We utilize the G7 stocks and bonds data to demonstrate the advantages of the proposed Dynamic Copulas. The object of interest is the analysis of the characteristics of financial market interactions. We apply the proposed dynamic models to demonstrate that neither stock nor bond market interactions are time-stable. Further, we conduct analyses to demonstrate that our suggested Dynamic Copulas are flexible enough to capture time-instable correlation patterns and to account for tail dependencies. Finally, we quantify the interaction characteristics of the G7 stocks and bonds markets and find that stocks tend to drop simultaneously during market turmoil. In contrast, bond markets offer diversification effects that tend to increase during market turbulences.
Asymmetric Dependence in Finance

Avoid downturn vulnerability by managing correlation dependency Asymmetric Dependence in Finance examines the risks and benefits of asset correlation, and provides effective strategies for more profitable portfolio management. Beginning with a thorough explanation of the extent and nature of asymmetric dependence in the financial markets, this book delves into the practical measures fund managers and investors can implement to boost fund performance. From managing asymmetric dependence using Copulas, to mitigating asymmetric dependence risk in real estate, credit and CTA markets, the discussion presents a coherent survey of the state-of-the-art tools available for measuring and managing this difficult but critical issue. Many funds suffered significant losses during recent downturns, despite having a seemingly well-diversified portfolio. Empirical evidence shows that the relation between assets is much richer than previously thought, and correlation between returns is dependent on the state of the market; this book explains this asymmetric dependence and provides authoritative guidance on mitigating the risks. Examine an options-based approach to limiting your portfolio's downside risk Manage asymmetric dependence in larger portfolios and alternate asset classes Get up to speed on alternative portfolio performance management methods Improve fund performance by applying appropriate models and quantitative techniques Correlations between assets increase markedly during market downturns, leading to diversification failure at the very moment it is needed most. The 2008 Global Financial Crisis and the 2006 hedge-fund crisis provide vivid examples, and many investors still bear the scars of heavy losses from their well-managed, well-diversified portfolios. Asymmetric Dependence in Finance shows you what went wrong, and how it can be corrected and managed before the next big threat using the latest methods and models from leading research in quantitative finance.
