Value at Risk of the main stock market indexes in the European Union (2000¬タモ2012) ¬リニ
نویسنده
چکیده
We analyze extreme movements of the main stocks market indexes in the European Union. We find that the Sweden and UK markets are the preferred ones for risk averse investors since they present the best risk-return performance. Moreover, the UK market is found to have a very low dependence with the rest of the European financial cycles, being the best one (in terms of risk-return) available for investors among the ones studied in this paper. Greece and Holland have the worst performance in terms of risk-return. Austria has the highest average return although the VaR is also high. Moreover, all markets are found to be linked: Austria, Belgium, Germany, Ireland and UK are the markets that are less dependent; while France, Greece, Holland, Italy, Spain and Sweden are more dependent on the rest of the European financial cycles. We find a very strong dependence of France from Belgium. Our results have very important policy implications with respect to the appropriate monetary policy that countries should adopt. In special, countries that experience unstable financial markets should consider similar macroeconomic policies to the UK and Sweden. © 2015 Society for Policy Modeling. Published by Elsevier Inc.
