沪深股市的相关结构分析与投资组合风险度量——基于ARFIMA-GARCH-Copula模型

金融资产收益率不仅具有尖峰厚尾性、异方差性,还具有长记忆性。基于此,本文建立ARFIMA-GARCH-Copula模型来研究沪深股市的相关结构和等权重投资组合风险值VaR,利用上证指数和深成指数收益率的组合来进行实证研究。首先采用经典R/S分析法检验各个资产收益率的长记忆性,经过分数阶差分后选用GARCH模型建模得到边缘分布。然后选择Copula函数来刻画两资产之间的相关结构,建立联合分布模型。进而采用Monte Carlo方法模拟产生各资产的收益率序列,计算出投资组合的风险值VaR。实证研究表明:沪深股市具有长记忆性,且两者具有对称的尾部相关性;Kupiec检验说明ARFIMA-GARCH-Copula模型较之于GARCH-Copula模型能更准确地度量投资组合风险。

贷款组合的“均值-方差-偏度”三因素优化模型

以银行各项资产组合收益率最大化为目标函数,以收益率偏度大于零控制银行重大损失发生的概率,以组合风险价值VaR风险限额为约束条件控制资产组合风险的大小,建立了贷款组合的"均值-方差-偏度"三因素优化模型.本模型的创新与特色一是通过偏度约束减少了组合收益率小于其均值的可能性,并增加了组合收益率大于其均值的概率.这在均值-方差模型的基础上,增加了偏度参数,建立了收益率均值-方差-偏度模型,开拓了资产组合优化的新思路.二是以组合风险价值VaR建立了约束条件,通过在一定置信水平下的最大损失限额来制约贷款组合的违约风险,使贷款配给的风险限定在银行的承受能力和贷款准备金的范围之内,解决了整体风险的控制问题.

Multifractal features of EUA and CER futures markets by using multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis based on empirical model decomposition

Basing on daily price data of carbon emission rights in futures markets of Certified Emission Reduction (CER) and European Union Allowances (EUA), we analyze the multiscale characteristics of the markets by using empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis (MFDFA) based on EMD. The complexity of the daily returns of CER and EUA futures markets changes with multiple time scales and multilayered features. The two markets also exhibit clear multifractal characteristics and long-range correlation. We employ shuffle and surrogate approaches to analyze the origins of multifractality. The long-range correlations and fat-tail distributions significantly contribute to multifractality. Furthermore, we analyze the influence of high returns on multifractality by using threshold method. The multifractality of the two futures markets is related to the presence of high values of returns in the price series.

Portfolio value-at-risk estimation in energy futures markets with time-varying copula-GARCH model

This paper combines copula functions with GARCH-type models to construct the conditional joint distribution, which is used to estimate Value-at-Risk (VaR) of an equally weighted portfolio comprising crude oil futures and natural gas futures in energy market. Both constant and time-varying copulas are applied to fit the dependence structure of the two assets returns. The findings show that the constant Student t copula is a good compromise for effectively fitting the dependence structure between crude oil futures and natural gas futures. Moreover, the skewed Student t distribution has a better fit than Normal and Student t distribution to the marginal distribution of each asset. Asymmetries and excess kurtosis are found in marginal distributions as well as in dependence. We estimate VaR of the underlying portfolio to be 95% and 99%, by using the Monte Carlo simulation. Then using backtesting, we compare the out-of-sample forecasting performances of VaR estimated by different models.     

A multi-period stochastic portfolio optimization model applied for an airline company in the EU ETS

This paper aims to set up and solve a multi-period stochastic portfolio optimization model from an airline company’s point of view, considering all the specific European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS) regulatory, managerial and trading constraints (i.e. physical constraints). Our contribution to existing academic literature is multiple. As the first ever case, we apply this technique to the aviation sector, a newly included sector within the EU ETS. More than mainly incorporating physical and technical (‘engineering’) features and focusing on short-term planning issues, we particularly address financial features and focus on mid-term planning issues. Therefore, instead of using spot prices, we run Monte Carlo simulations of correlated geometric Brownian motions (GBM) for traded futures prices of various emission allowance types for different CO₂ delivery time periods. We thereby specifically refer to the existing exchange-traded emission allowance types EU Emission Allowance (EUA) and Certified Emission Reduction (CER). By implementing actually valid and real-world-oriented regulatory constraints for EU ETS, namely managerial and trading constraints, our model implies a real-life application. We also highlight the possibility of banking and borrowing of emission allowances between CO₂ compliance periods, which is a crucial regulatory feature of EU ETS.     

金融衍生产品的力学方法分析（Ⅰ）——期指价格基本方程

类似连续介质力学方法,将期指价格变化看成是连续、有规律可寻的。根据期指特点,建立期指价格变化的基本方程。这是一个微分方程,其解显示时间与价格呈对数圆形关系。若将时间理解为相应价格的概率,则这一关系与基于统计理论分析的、著名的诺贝尔经济学奖（1997）获得者的期权定价Black-Scholes公式中主要假设-基础资产（在此为期指）价格呈对数正态分布-完全一致。表明了依据完全不同的两种分析方法,也会得到相同的结果。只是Black-Scholes是用假设给出,而作者则从微分方程的解推出。     

On the Modeling of CO2 EUA and CER Prices of EU‐ETS for the 2008–2012 Period

Increased consumption of fossil fuels in industrial production has led to a significant elevation in the emission of greenhouse gases and to global warming. The most effective international action against global warming is the Kyoto Protocol, which aims to reduce carbon emissions to desired levels in a certain time span. Carbon trading is one of the mechanisms used to achieve the desired reductions. One of the most important implications of carbon trading for industrial systems is the risk of uncertainty about the prices of carbon allowance permits traded in the carbon markets. In this paper, we consider stochastic and time series modeling of carbon market prices and provide estimates of the model parameters involved, based on the European Union emissions trading scheme carbon allowances data obtained for 2008–2012 period. In particular, we consider fractional Brownian motion and autoregressive moving average–generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedastic modeling of the European Union emissions trading scheme data and provide comparisons with benchmark models. Our analysis reveals evidence for structural changes in the underlying models in the span of the years 2008–2012. Data‐driven methods for identifying possible change‐points in the underlying models are employed, and a detailed analysis is provided. Our analysis indicated change‐points in the European Union Allowance (EUA) prices in the first half of 2009 and in the second half of 2011, whereas in the Certified Emissions Reduction (CER) prices three change‐points have appeared, in the first half of 2009, the middle of 2011, and in the second half of 2012. These change‐points seem to parallel the global economic indicators as well. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A systematic approach to pricing and hedging international derivatives with interest rate risk: analysis of international derivatives under stochastic interest rates

This paper deals with the valuation and the hedging of non-path-dependent European options on one or several underlying assets in a model of an international economy allowing for both, interest rate risk and exchange rate risk. Using martingale theory and, in particular, the change of numeraire technique we provide a unified and easily applicable approach to pricing and hedging exchange options on stocks, bonds, futures, interest rates and exchange rates. We also cover the pricing and hedging of compound exchange options.     

Modeling carbon spot and futures price returns with GARCH and Markov switching GARCH models

This paper makes use of spot and futures market data to carry out a thorough analysis of the dynamics of carbon price returns in the European Union Emission Trading Scheme for the whole first commitment period from 2008 to 2012. Understanding the properties of carbon price returns is especially crucial for industries which have to comply with an emission trading system and other market participants such as risk managers and speculators. We therefore seek to develop accurate models which capture the behavior of carbon price returns comprehensively. We apply a broad spectrum of GARCH model specifications, using different distributions for model innovations. As both time series, spot and futures price returns, exhibit asymmetric behavior in their variance, we additionally take Markov regime switching models for the variance equation into consideration. Empirical results demonstrate that AGARCH, NARCH and GJR fit the data best. We further show that, in the error term of any model, fat-tailed distributions—in particular the generalized error distribution—significantly improve the fit. Additionally, as futures returns seem to carry informational content concerning subsequent spot returns, we propose a sound, yet parsimonious, spot returns model, well-suited to capturing the dynamics. Finally, the most appropriate models for spot and futures price returns are tested in an out-of-sample environment, and further checked for robustness in data subsets. Subsequently a model for each market is proposed.
