Multivariate GARCH
Maďar, Milan ; Hurt, Jan (advisor) ; Branda, Martin (referee) ; Mazurová, Lucie (referee)
4 Title: Multivariate GARCH Author: Mgr. Milan Mad'ar Department: Katedra pravděpodobnosti a matematické statistiky Abstract: This thesis will examine the regional and global linkages as evi- dence of integration of stock markets in Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Prague and the U.S. Therefore we will utilize the multivariate GARCH approach that investigates the dynamics of volatility transmission of related foreign exchange rates. Also, we will define three basic model classes. For each of the model classes a theoret- ical review, basic properties and estimation procedure with proofs are provided. We illustrate each approach by applying the models to daily market data. The two main aims of the thesis are to discuss and report the existence of regional and global stock markets linkages and provide a comparison of such multivariate GARCH models on the data sample. The main contribution of the thesis is that it treats the data in the context of real development in financial markets and takes into account the real situation during and after the financial crisis of 2008. We find out that the estimated time-varying conditional correlations indicate limited integration among the markets, which implies that investors can benefit from the risk reduction by investing in the different stock markets, especially during the crisis....

Multivariate generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity models
Nováková, Martina ; Pešta, Michal (advisor) ; Maciak, Matúš (referee)
This master thesis deals with extension of the univariate GARCH model to multivari- ate models. We present individual models and deal with methods of their estimation. Then we describe some statistical tests for diagnosting the models. We have programmed in the statistical software R one of them - the Ling-Li test. Afterwards we apply selected models to real data of stock market index S&P 500, stock market index Russell 2000 and stocks of crude oil. For the GO-GARCH model, we compare all available estimation methods and show their differences. Then we compare the results of all models with each other and also with univariate models in terms of estimates of conditional variances, estimates of conditional correlations and also in terms of computational complexity. 1

Multivariate financial time series models in portfolio optimization
Bureček, Tomáš ; Hendrych, Radek (advisor) ; Prášková, Zuzana (referee)
This master thesis deals with the modeling of multivariate volatility in finan- cial time series. The aim of this work is to describe in detail selected approaches to modeling multivariate financial volatility, including verification of models, and then apply them in an empirical study of asset portfolio optimization. The results are compared with the classical approach of portfolio optimization theory based on unconditional moment estimates. The evaluation was based on four known op- timization problems, namely minimization of variance, Markowitz's model, ma- ximization of the Sharpe ratio and minimization of CVaR. The output portfolios were compared by using four metrics that reflect the returns and risks of the port- folios. The results demonstrated that employing the multivariate volatility models one obtains higher expected returns with less expected risk when comparing with the classical approach. 1

Central Bank Communication and Correlation between Financial Markets: Evidence from the Euro Area
Kučera, Milan ; Horváth, Roman (advisor) ; Krištoufek, Ladislav (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to assess the effect of ECB's communication on financial market co- movements between Italy, Spain, Germany and France using MGARCH family of models. Author addresses partially the potential problem of endogeneity of central bank communication by using Composite indicator of systemic stress and excess liquidity. The author estimates the impact of ECB's communication on correlations of government bond yield changes using daily data from 2008 to 2014. For this purpose author employs bivariate diagonal BEKK(1,1) and bivariate scalar BEKK(1,1) with surprises of macroeconomic announcements under control. The results are consistent and robust for all models, the results suggest that communication does not have statistically significant effect on financial market correlations in the Euro area. Furthermore, author defines delta functions which describe and quantify the immediate and full effect of explanatory variables on conditional correlations in bivariate diagonal BEKK(1,1) and bivariate scalar BEKK(1,1). To the best of author's knowledge this thesis is the only one in the literature which examines this effect of ECB's communication by MGARCH models. Keywords: Financial markets, central bank communication, correlation, MGARCH, BEKK Author's e-mail: milankucera1@seznam.cz...

Econometric Modelling and Forecasting of Natural Gas Spot Prices
Kubišová, Barbora ; Hendrych, Radek (advisor) ; Hudecová, Šárka (referee)
The thesis deals with modeling and forecasting of natural gas spot prices, con- sumption of natural gas and average daily temperature. We assume that these three variables are influenced by each other, because as temperature decreases, consumption increases, which in turn increases the price with the increasing de- mand. Therefore, we propose to model these variables by vector autoregression. We compare this model with one-dimensional models where for each one we build a model from the ARMA-GARCH class. Models are estimated using historic va- lues and then designed models are used to simulate scenarios. Analysis of scenarios provides information to gas supply companies estimates of portfolio consumption and financial flows related to the purchase concerning natural gas. 1

Modelování ve finanční analýze
Maďar, Milan ; Hurt, Jan (advisor) ; Zichová, Jitka (referee)
In this thesis we study the regional and global linkages as evidence of markets integration of the stock markets in Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Prague the U.S. and the dynamics of volatility transmission of related foreign exchange rates using multivariate GARCH approach. For each of the model classes, a theoretical review, basic properties and estimation procedure are provided. We illustrate approach by applying the models to daily market data. Our two main aims are discussing and report the existence of regional and global stock markets linkages and provide comparison of such multivariate GARCH models on the data sample. We find out that the estimated time-varying conditional correlations indicate limited integration among the markets which implies that investors can benefit from the risk reduction by investigating in the different stock markets especially during the crisis.
