Securitization Ten Years After The Financial Crisis: An Overview, Steven L. Schwarcz Jan 2018

Securitization Ten Years After The Financial Crisis: An Overview, Steven L. Schwarcz

Faculty Scholarship

This symposium issue examines securitization a decade after the 2008 financial crisis. Prior to the crisis, securitization was one of America’s dominant means of financing. Many observers, however, blamed securitization for causing the crisis, sparking regulation that arguably has been overly restrictive and, in some cases, even punitive. Where are we now?


A Stochastic Volatility Model With Leverage Effect And Regime Switching, Hong Jiang Jan 2014

A Stochastic Volatility Model With Leverage Effect And Regime Switching, Hong Jiang

Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)

Modeling the volatility of asset returns is a very important study in financial economics. Among the time-varying volatility models, the Stochastic Volatility (SV) models are argued to have advantages over the autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (ARCH) models. The purpose of this article is to put forward a generalized and flexible Stochastic Volatility model, the Stochastic Volatility Model with Leverage Effect and Regime Switching (SVLR model), which could capture the complex features of financial time series to the most extent.


Thumbs Up To Parametric Measures Of Relative Var And Cvar In Indonesian Sectors, David Allen, Ray Boffey, Akhmad Kramadibrata, Robert Powell, Abhay Singh Jan 2012

Thumbs Up To Parametric Measures Of Relative Var And Cvar In Indonesian Sectors, David Allen, Ray Boffey, Akhmad Kramadibrata, Robert Powell, Abhay Singh

Research outputs 2012

We examine relative share market risk between Indonesian sectors and how this changes during extreme market fluctuations. Ten sectors comprising the IDX Composite Index are examined over an eight-year period spanning the pre-GFC, GFC and post-GFC. Risk is measured using parametric and nonparametric Value at Risk (VaR) and Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR), which measures risk beyond VaR. In contrast to studies on most global markets, and due to relative stability in the Indonesian market, no significant differences are found in relative portfolio risk between the conditional and non-conditional measures, or between parametric and nonparametric measures. The insights are important …


The Ideal Asset/Liability Model For Credit Unions (With Assets Between $100 - $500 Million), David Alan Kennedy Jan 2004

The Ideal Asset/Liability Model For Credit Unions (With Assets Between $100 - $500 Million), David Alan Kennedy

Theses Digitization Project

This project focused on developing the ideal Asset / Liability Model for credit unions with assets between one hundred million and five hundred million dollars. Ideally the model should be closely aligned with that of a successful credit union at the high end of this range. SELCO Community Credit Union of Eugene Oregon was used in creating the model.


International Portfolio Diversification With Special Reference To Emerging Markets, Joseline Chimhini Jan 2001

International Portfolio Diversification With Special Reference To Emerging Markets, Joseline Chimhini

Theses: Doctorates and Masters

This study evaluates the potential benefits that investors obtain from diversifying their portfolios into emerging markets when the time varying behavior of assets is considered. It also tests whether the existing asset-pricing model developed in the context of developed markets, which assumes complete integration, can explain the expected returns in emerging markets and determines the risk of investing in these markets using cross section and time series data. An international capital asset pricing model (ICAPM) with time varying moments developed by Harvey (1991) is adopted. The conditional asset-pricing model, which takes into account prevailing world economic factors, was used. The …
