چکیده

We review models for construction of higher-dimensional dependence that have arisen recent years. A multivariate data set, which exhibit complex patterns of dependence, particularly in the tails, can be modelled using a cascade of lower-dimensional copulae. We examine two such models that differ in their construction of the dependency structure, namely the nested Archimedean constructions and the pair-copula constructions (also referred to as vines). The constructions are compared, and estimationand simulation techniques are examined. The fit of the two constructions is tested on two different four-dimensional data sets; precipitation values and equity returns, using state of the art copula goodness-of-fit procedures. The nested Archimedean construction is strongly rejected for both our data sets, while the pair-copula construction provides a much better fit. Through VaR calculations, we show that the latter does not overfit data, but works very well even out-of-sample.

Risk Management in Oil Market: A Comparison between Multivariate GARCH Models and Copula-based Models

H igh price volatility and the risk are the main features of commodity markets. One way to reduce this risk is to apply the hedging policy by future contracts. In this regard, in this paper, we will calculate the optimal hedging ratios for OPEC oil. In this study, besides the multivariate GARCH models, for the first time we use conditional copula models for modelling dependence struc...
