Hedging strategies of Energy Commodities
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
The paper examines the issue of hedging in energy markets. The objective of this study is to select an optimal model that will provide the highest price risk reduction for the selected commodities. We apply the ordinary least squares methods, autoregressive model, autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity and copula to calculate the appropriate dynamic minimum-variance hedge ratio. The objects of hedging are the spot and futures prices. We use weekly data for the period 2013 to 2018 to estimate our values. Empirical results show that the Copula model is the most effective method for hedging against price risks.

Risk Hedging Strategies under Energy System and Climate Policy Uncertainties
The future development of the energy sector is rife with uncertainties. They concern virtually the entire energy chain, from resource extraction to conversion technologies, energy demand, and the stringency of future environmental policies. Investment decisions today need thus not only to be cost-effective from the present perspective, but have to take into account also the imputed future risks...
متن کاملDynamic Hedging Strategies
To hedge its written call, the issuing firm decides to buy shares of the underlying stock or portfolio. The number of shares purchased at time t will depend on the price of the underlying stock at t and on the amount of time remaining until the expiration of the call. Another way of viewing this is that the amount of stock held against the call position depends on the probability that the optio...
متن کاملVariance risk premia in energy commodities
This paper investigates variance risk premia in energy commodities, particularly crude oil and natural gas, using a robust model-independent approach. Over a period of 11 years, we find that the average variance risk premia are significantly negative for both energy commodities. However, it is difficult to explain the level and variation in energy variance risk premia with systematic or commodi...
متن کاملPerformance of hedging strategies in interval models
For a proper assessment of risks associated with the trading of derivatives, the performance of hedging strategies should be evaluated not only in the context of the idealized model that has served as the basis of strategy development, but also in the context of other models. In this paper we consider the class of so-called interval models as a possible testing ground. In the context of such mo...
متن کاملModel-independent hedging strategies for variance swaps
A variance swap is a derivative with a path-dependent payoff which allows investors to take positions on the future variability of an asset. In the idealised setting of a continuously monitored variance swap written on an asset with continuous paths it is well known that the variance swap payoff can be replicated exactly using a portfolio of puts and calls and a dynamic position in the asset. T...
متن کاملHedging bets with correlated quantum strategies
This paper studies correlations among independently administered hypothetical tests of a simple interactive type, and demonstrates that correlations arising in quantum information theoretic variants of these tests can exhibit a striking non-classical behavior. When viewed in a game-theoretic setting, these correlations are suggestive of a perfect form of hedging, where the risk of a loss in one...
