1. Introduction
For three decades, global nancial markets have experienced nancial and currency crises
that originate in one particular country, market or geographical region before being rapidly
transmitted more widely. This shift of crisis effect from one area to another is termed as
contagion. Recent examples of large-scale contagion include:
the Asian currency crisis that originated in Thailand and spread throughout East
Asian countries during 1997;
the market crisis that travelled from Russia to Brazil in 1998;
the spread of the USAs subprime crisis of 2007 to several world markets; and
most recently, the European Sovereign debt crisis (ESDC) (2010) that originated in
Greece and spread to other major European and global countries.
Financial crisis is not troublesome always; it may be damaging for one market but at the
same time it has its own advantages for another. Investment-related doubts appear when the
shocks due to country-specic crisis transmit from one country to another, even though
these countries are interlinked or not owing to macroeconomic variables. Many questions

come into existence related to this such as: What are the transmission or spillover channels
of shock? Whether these channels are due to direct trade and/or nancial linkages or due to
other factors like investor behaviour? What is the size and degree of the transmission of
crisis? What remedial actions should be taken to defend and control such crisis?
According to the available literature, contagion is referred as the transmission of shocks
due to crisis from one market to another (or a group of markets), institute or country, which
could not be explained by the fundamental channels. Thus, volatility spillover/transmission
and contagion play a crucial role for making major economic decisions at international level.
1.1 Historical background
The word contagion was observed before 1990s in the eld of medicine where it was used
frequently but it was added to the nancial dictionary after the Asian Financial crisis of
1997. Forbes and Rigobon (2002) used the word interdependenceinstead of strong
linkagesfor higher degree of co-movements between two countries, while Forbes and
Rigobon (2001) gave the advantages of shift contagion. Following Forbes and Rigobon
(2002),Caporale et al. (2005) explained the parameter stability test of correlation coefcient
analysis by controlling heteroscedasticity, endogeneity and omitting variablebias.
The rst empirical study on nancial contagion was given by King and Wadhwani
(1990)[1]. This study dened the contagion as signicant increase in correlation between
asset returns during the stock market crash of October 1987. Eichengreen et al. (1994)
employed probability[2]-based model on the leading economic indicator of 22 countries
covering the period of 26 years, while Calvo and Reinhart (1996) used factor model (Principal
component analysis [PCA])[3] to check contagion effect on stock and bond market for the
period from 1970 to 1993. Vector Autoregression (VAR)[4] analysis was used by Baig and
Goldfajn (1998) for ve selected markets for the period of 11 months during the Asian crisis
period. Corsetti et al. (2001) used bivariate correlation analysis and factor model[5] over the
time period of 18 years for the data of 18 stock markets. Dungey and Martin (2001)
introduced latent factor model[6] (i.e. class of factor model) which not only provides the sign
of contagion effect but also the size of contagion effect. Forbes and Rigobon (2002) used
Heteroscedasticity-adjusted correlation coefcient test (hereafter FR correlation)[7]on28
stock markets covering three major crisis periods (i.e. stock market crash of 1987, Mexican
crisis of 1994 and Asian crisis of 1997), and found higher interdependence in the state of
contagion effect during the crisis period. Forbes and Rigobon (2001) and Forbes and
Rigobon (2002) dene contagion as a signicant increase in correlation coefcient rather
than existence of correlation (also called higher order co-movements or Interdependence)
between the countries during crisis period. Bae et al. (2003) used a new approach, i.e.
Extreme return Co-exceedances test, and found that extreme negative return strongly
supported the contagion effect.

past empirical studies on contagion that include univariate or bivariate[8]GARCH
models and multivariate GARCH model framework [such as Diagonal Vector Error
Conditional Heteroscedasticity (VECH), Multivariate GARCH model of Baba-Engle-Kraft-
Kroner (1989) (BEKK), Constant Conditional Correlation (CCC), Dynamic Conditional
Correlation (DCC), DCC with External repressor (DCCX), Asymmetric DCC [ADCC],
Asymmetric Generalised DCC [AGDCC] and TDCC [DCC with Student t-distribution]].
Major studies used DCC[9] model for data analysis. Very few numbers of studies were
found that have employed ADCC[10] and AGDCC[11]models.
From the sample studies that are considered for the present paper, Glick and Rose (1999)
used maximum number of sample countries which is 161 in number. It covers ve
prominent nancial events over 20 years which include 1971s Bretton Woods system
problem, 1973s Smithsonian Agreement collapse, 1992-1993s European Monetary System
crisis, 1994s Mexican crisis and 1997sAsiannancial crisis. Some studies focused on only
one country (or market) such as Guo et al. (2011),Dorra and Achraf (2014),Flavin and
Sheenan (2015),Roy and Roy (2015). On the other hand, Dewandaru et al. (2016) considered
maximum time period, i.e. 42 years data (from 1970 to 2011), from three stock markets, while
Pan et al. (2015),King and Wadhwani (1990) and Billio and Pelizzon (2003) used very small
sample periods, i.e. three, eight and 9 months, respectively. Some studies considered the
research period as 11 months (Baig and Goldfajn, 1998;Dungey et al., 2002, 2006;Corsetti
et al., 2005).
From the sample studies used for the present paper, major number of studies focused on
Asian crisis 1997-1998, followed by global nancial crisis (GFC) 2008, ESDC 2010, Russian
Bond default 1998, Mexican crisis (Tequila effect) 1994 and Global crisis 2007 (subprime
crisis). Considering the three recent crisis events (i.e. subprime crisis, GFC and ESDC), the
studies which have focused only on subprime crisis include Dooley and Hutchison (2009),
Celık (2012),Gallegati (2012),Dimitriou and Simos (2013),Hoesli and Reka (2013),Chittedi
(2014),Dimitriou and Simos (2014),Anderson et al. (2015),Flavin and Sheenan (2015),Lin
et al. (2015),Hemche et al. (2016) and Ye et al. (2016). The studies that have focused only on

The objective of the present study is to comprehend the present status of empirical
studies available on nancial contagion by reviewing the earlier published and unpublished
research work on the same. The theoretical portion of contagion analysis (i.e. channels,
causes and theories of nancial contagion) is not considered, as it is out of the scope of the
present paper. Rest of the paper is formulated as follows: Section 2 focuses on the
objective(s) of the paper. Data and methodology used for this paper are described in
Section 3. Detailed classication and discussion of the empirical studies on contagion are given
in Section 4. And nally, ndings and conclusion of this paper are analysed in Section 5.
2. Data and methodology
2.1 Data
In all, 151 research papers on nancial market contagion were obtained from various sources
covering the period from 1990 to 2015. Of these 151 papers, 124 papers are from referred
journals, 27 are working paper series (four are from International Monetary Fund [IMF], three
are from The National Bureau of Economic Research [NBER] and eight are from other sources),
2 are discussion papers, 3 are conference papers and one is a national seminar. Remaining six
papers were downloaded from different websites and institutional electronic databases. Table I
(given in Annexure1) reported the classication of the several research papers on the basis of
year of study, sources of papers, country where the research took place, sample period covered,
number of sample countries, markets on which the research was performed (like: stock, bond,
commodity, foreign exchange (FX), real estate or oil market), methodology adopted and the
conclusion and ndings reported by the researchers.
2.2 Methodology

and spillover. A large number of papers were obtained using above keywords but according
to the relevance of the subject under consideration, and 151 research papers related to
international nancial market contagion were shortlisted for the present study. After studying
these papers carefully, all the research papers are classied in the following categories:
methodology used to test the contagion effect;
year-wise classication (from 1990 to 2016);
country-wise classication (country where research was done);
number of periods taken as sample data;
number of sample countries considered;
number of studies on the basis of crisis;
paper-type-wise classication (papers in combination with contagion, spillover and
integration);
classication on the basis of markets used (stock, bond, commodity, forex, etc.); and
sources of the papers.

3. Element-wise classication: studies on nancial contagion
This section summarises the empirical studies on contagion on the basis of above elements
mentioned in the section of the data and methodology (Figure 1).
3.1 Methodology used to test the contagion eect
Tables II to IV and Figure 2 reported different methodologies or tools employed in different
research papers on nancial contagion. In the past empirical studies on nancial contagion,
different authors have shown various tools and techniques for contagion analysis; e.g. Fry-
McKibbin and Yu-Ling Hsiao (2014) have used higher order and lower order tests of
contagion. The higher order model includes outlier test by Favero and Giavazzi (2002),
extreme co-exceedance test by Bae et al. (2003), threshold model by Pesaran and Pick (2007),
tail dependency copula model by Rodriguez (2007), co-skewness test by Fry et al. (2008), co-
kurtosis and co-volatility test by Fry-McKibbin and Yu-Ling Hsiao (2014), and other tests of
contagion were based on second- and third-order movements. On the other hand, correlation
analysis was presented as lower order test on contagion effect. According to Forbes and
Rigobon (2001),nancial contagion can be tested through cross-market correlation, ARCH/
GARCH volatility spillover models, co-integration and probability models. They also argued
that co-integration tests are not appropriate for testing the contagion effect, as the contagion
effect present in short-run shift or co-movements rather than long-run. Dornbusch et al.
(2000) conducted another test of contagion as crisis transmits through fundamental and
capital ow channels. Finally, Cheung et al.(2009) and Billio and Pelizzon (2003) reported
different models applicable for testing contagion on the basis of categories of contagion
denition by World Bank group. Figure 3 represents different models used on the basis of
denition of contagion.
From Tables II to IV and Figure 2, it can be observed that majority of research papers
have used correlation coefcient (such as DCC and FR correlation) to test contagion effect as
compared to other tests of contagion. Adjusted correlation coefcient model introduced by
Forbes and Rigobon (2002) has been most frequently used model in the literature as
compared to adjusted correlation model by Corsetti et al. (2001), followed by GARCH model,

Causality test, VAR analysis, tail dependence Copula, Markov Switching model or Regime
switching model, regression analysis and factor model are frequently used for examining
international nancial contagion. Conditional correlation models are commonly used in past
studies with different framework such as CCC, DCC, DCCX, AGDCC, GDCC, TDCC and
GARCH-BEKK/VECH. Less number of studies are found on higher order co-movement test
of contagion such as Probit and Logit model, co-skewness, co-volatility and co-kurtosis and
Extreme return co-exceedances test. In addition to the above models, other tools for testing
contagion include latent factor model, Johanssons co-integration test, impulse response
function, wavelet analysis, PCA, VECM, several time series estimation, Network analysis
model, Hawkes Jump Diffusion model, fundamental indicator analysis, likelihood ratio test,
etc.

century. Some authors, such as Caporale et al. (2005), argued that the rst empirical
work on nancial contagion was done by King and Wadhwani (1990).Grubel and
Fadner (1971) was the rst empirical study on nancial contagion according to Kilic
and Ulusoy (2015), whereas many other authors reported that the rst empirical work
on contagion was given by Forbes and Rigobon (2002).FromTable V and Figure 4,it
can be observed that the empirical studies on contagion were very rare during 1990-
2000 and the work on contagion rapidly increased after nancial crisis of 1997. The
research works on contagion are growing rapidly after the GFC and approximately
64.24 percentage of total research work was found during 2010-2016.

3.3 Country-wise (country where research took place) classication
Table VI and Figure 5 present the summary of empirical studies on contagion considered for
this paper, based on country-wise distribution. From Table VI, it was found that most of the
studies were conducted in the USA (12.58 per cent), followed by Australia (11.26 per cent),
Greece (7.28 per cent), the UK (7.28 per cent), Germany (6.62 per cent) and 3.97 per cent each
in case of Brazil, France, Italy, The Netherlands and Tunisia. Bangladesh, India and Korea
reveal same percentage (i.e., 2.47 per cent) of total research work considered in this paper
based on contagion analysis only. Remaining percentage (i.e. 27.72 per cent) of research
work has been found from Belgium, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Finland, Hong Kong,
Ireland, Kuwait, Lebanon, Malaysia, Mexico, Russia, South Africa, South Korea, Slovakia,
Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Japan and Turkey. From the above
discussion, it can be assumed that the empirical study on nancial contagion is an
international issue rather than concerned to a particular country or geographical region.
3.4 Number of period taken as sample data
Table VII and Figure 6 state the number of years taken as sample time period for each
study. It was revealed that the majority of researches was conducted by taking the sample
period covering one to ve years. Of 151 studies, six papers considered the sample period

considered 6-10 years, 32 papers considered 11-15 years and there are 15 papers that have
considered 16-20 years for analysis. It can be seen from Table VII that approximately 87 per
cent of empirical work on contagion have been conducted while considering 1-20 years as

3.5 Number of sample countries used
Table VIII and Figure 7 describe the number of sample countries considered in each
study for testing contagion effect in international markets. Of 151 studies, 54 studies
limited their sample between six and ten countries (i.e. 35.76 per cent). Very few studies
have been conducted by taking high number of sample countries. Three studies each
have considered the number of sample countries between 21-25 and 61-65; and two

studies each have considered number of sample countries between 26-30, 31-35 and
51-60. No study was found that has considered the number of sample countries ranging
between 46 and 50, while only one study was found that has used the data from more
than 100 countries. From Table VIII, it can be clearly observed that the major portion
(i.e. 88.08 per cent) of empirical literature on contagion used less than 20 countries for
their analysis.
3.6 Number of study on the basis of crisis
Contagion test on different nancial and non-nancial events are summarised in Table IX
and Figure 8. It can be observed from Table IX and Figure 8 that most of the studies focused
on Asian nancial crisis (including Thailand and Hong Kong crisis), followed by Global
crisis 2008 (GFC), European debt crisis, Russian Government bond default and Mexican
crisis (Tequila effect).

3.7 Paper-type-wise classication (paper combination with contagion, spillover and
integration)
Total studies are classied on the basis of their objectives such as test of contagion only; test
of contagion and spillover; or test of contagion, spillover and integration; and test of
contagion and integration which has been demonstrated in Table X and Figure 9. Out of 151
selected studies, 101 studies aimed to test the contagion effect, while only four studies
collectively examine the evidence of contagion, spillover andintegration among the nancial
markets. In all 19 and 20 papers were found on test of contagion combined with spillover
and integration, respectively. Only seven such studies have been found which aim to
examine whether there is a crisis or interdependence among the nancial markets during the
crisis period.

3.8 Classication on the basis of markets used (stock, bond, commodity, forex etc.)
Crisis can be transmitted through different channels, i.e. nancial markets, currency
markets, interest rates and sovereign spread (Dornbusch et al., 2000).Table XI and Figure 10
present different individual and combination of markets considered for studies and
fundamental indicators that were targeted to test the contagion effect. Of 151 papers, 87 (i.e.
57.62 per cent) papers focused on stock markets only, while 8 papers (i.e. 5.30 per cent)
focused on the combination of stock and forex markets and 10 papers (i.e., 6.62 per cent)
focused on combined stock and bond markets. Eight (i.e. 5.30 per cent) and nine (i.e. 5.96 per
cent) papers were found in case of individual bond and forex markets, respectively.
Remaining 15.23 per cent of total studies considered for the present paper (i.e. 23 of 151)
focused on different markets, i.e. commodity markets, oil, money markets, real estate and
selected leading economic indicators.
3.9 Source of the paper
Sources from where the research papers were collected are reported in Tables XII and XIII
and Figure 11. By considering Tables XII and XIII and Figure 11, it was found that major
portion of research papers, i.e. 82 percentage (approximately, 124 out of 151 papers) were
collected from referred journals and remaining 18 per cent were collected from other sources
which include working paper series, conference papers, discussion papers, papers from
different websites and various electronic databases.

4. Summary and conclusion
The present paper considered 151 empirical studies on nancial market contagion, from
different journals, electronic databases, working paper series, international and
national conferences and discussion papers. These papers have covered over 27 years
from 1990 to 2016. The primary aim of this paper is to nd out the growth of the
empirical studies on nancial contagion and to arrange these in a structured manner
which can be helpful for future researchers in the eld of international
market contagion analysis. Sample studies considered for this paper are arranged on
the basis of tools and methodology used, year of the studies, origin of the

studies (respective country of the rst author), numbers of sample periods and
countries taken under the study, studies on the basis of crisis and markets considered
and nally, sources of the studies, whether collected from any referred journal or from
other sources.
From the above analysis, it is found that although empirical studies on contagion
started since 1990s but came into notice during the period of Asian nancial crisis of
1997-1998. Very few studies are observed on contagion during 1990-2000 while average
number of studies is found in the years 2001-2010. The growth rate of the empirical
work on contagion rapidly increased over the past ve years (i.e. during 2011-2016).
Most of the studies found are from the USA followed by the UK, Australia and Greece,
while very few studies have been found from the rest of the countries. Majority of the
authors focused on stock markets only, which explains that the shocks may be easily
transmitted through stock market channels out to all nancial markets. Higher order
test of contagion (such as co-volatility, co-skewness and co-kurtosis) tools were used
very rarely in the considered literature, thus there would be a scope for higher order test
of contagion in further studies. As the market integration and vulnerability increases, it
may create more favourable condition for transmission of nancial contagion. Besides
that, improving technology of global information system, overreaction of investors
perception, growth of outside debt (in case of emerging markets), ow of capital from
developed to emerging markets, political pressure and macroeconomic variables play
an important role in transmission of nancial contagion. This paper throws light on
quantitative perspective and not much on qualitative side of the contagion analysis.
Thecontentsandndings of this paper may provide helpful information regarding the
empirical studies on nancial contagion to academician, researchers, investors and
policy makers for making meaningful decisions.
Future research can focus on the investigation of nancial contagion by employing
advance statistical technique such as co-skewness, co-kurtosis and quantile regression.
More empirical work is required for other asset classes such as commodities, real estate
and bond markets. The effect of regulatory measures, macro-economic reforms and
government debt structure could also be used to detect and control the magnitude of
nancial contagion.

This study describes a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of shadow banking and financial contagion dynamics from 1996 to 2022. Through a holistic approach, our study focuses on quantifying the impact and uncovering significant trends in scientific research related to these interconnected fields. Using advanced bibliometric methods, we explored the global network of publications, identifying key works, influential authors, and the evolution of research over time. The results of the bibliometric analysis have highlighted an annual growth rate of 22.05% in publications related to the topics of shadow banking and financial contagion, illustrating researchers’ interest and the dynamic nature of publications over time. Additionally, significant increases in scientific production have been recorded in recent years, reaching a total of 178 articles published in 2022. The most predominant keywords used in research include “systemic risks”, “risk assessment”, and “measuring systemic risk”. The thematic evolution has revealed that over time, the focus on fundamental concepts used in analyzing these two topics has shifted, considering technological advancements and disruptive events that have impacted the economic and financial system. Our findings provide a detailed insight into the progress, gaps, and future directions in understanding the complex interplay of shadow banking and financial contagion. Our study represents a valuable asset for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers with a keen interest in understanding the dynamics of these critical components within the global financial system.
... They define contagion as: (1) a significant increase in the probability of a crisis in a given country if a crisis occurs elsewhere; (2) The spread of volatility of asset prices through countries; (3) The variations of cross-country comovements of asset prices unexplained by fundamentals; (4) A significant increase in comovements of prices; (5) The intensifications of the transmission channel after a shock to one country. Further overviews can be found in Kuusk et al. (2011), Seth andPanda (2018). In a very broad and informal way, Forbes and Rigobon (2002) define contagion as "a significant increase in cross-market linkages after a shock to one country (or group of countries)". ...

Purpose This paper explores whether the Euro-area sovereign credit default swap market is prone to contagion effects. It investigates whether the sharp increase in sovereign CDS spread of a given country is due to a deterioration of the macroeconomic variables or some form of contagion. Design/methodology/approach For this purpose, the authors use an innovative approach, i.e. spatial econometrics. Although modeling spatial dependence is an attractive challenge, its application in the field of finance remains limited. Findings The empirical findings show strong evidence of spatial dependence highlighting the presence of pure contagion. Furthermore, evidence of wake-up call contagion-increased sensitivity of investors to fundamentals of neighboring countries and shift contagion-increased sensitivity to common factors are well recorded. Originality/value This study aims to study a crucial financial issue that gained increased research interest, i.e. financial contagion. A methodological contribution is made by extending the standard spatial Durbin model (SDM) to analyze and differentiate between several forms of contagion. The results can be used to understand how shocks are spreading through countries.
... The literature contains several different methodologies to assess financial contagions. Distinct crisis contexts have also been assessed (see [25]). To ensure conceptual and methodological coherence, various contagion definitions have been adopted (for example, [26][27][28]). ...

Extraordinary events, regardless of their financial or non-financial nature, are a great challenge for financial stability. This study examines the impact of one such occurrence—the COVID-19 pandemic—on cryptocurrency markets. A detrended cross-correlation analysis was performed to evaluate how the links between 16 cryptocurrencies were changed by this event. Cross-correlation coefficients that were calculated before and after the onset of the pandemic were compared, and the statistical significance of their variation was assessed. The analysis results show that the markets of the assessed cryptocurrencies became more integrated. There is also evidence to suggest that the pandemic crisis promoted contagion, mainly across short timescales (with a few exceptions of non-contagion across long timescales). We conclude that, in spite of the distinct characteristics of cryptocurrencies, those in our sample offered no protection against the financial turbulence provoked by the COVID-19 pandemic, and thus, our study provided yet another example of ‘correlations breakdown’ in times of crisis.
... Volatility spillover and transmission have played an important role in making international economic decisions (Seth & Panda, 2018). Forecasting volatilities in any financial asset class is of prime importance for risk management, asset pricing and asset allocation (Chen & Xu, 2019). ...

India and China have been at the top of the exporter, importer, producer and consumer economies. The two neighbouring countries provide the largest market in the world. They also share a similar history of development of their commodity derivatives markets. This paper aims to examine the direction of causality and spillover effect between the metal futures markets of the two economies. The analysis is done for metals such as copper, aluminium, zinc and gold in the period 2009-2020 by using Granger causality and Dynamic Conditional Correlation-GARCH (DCC-GARCH) models. The gold futures at the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) have a unidirectional causality on the gold futures traded at Shanghai Futures Exchanges (SHFE), unlike other metals having bidirectional causality. Similarly, GARCH results report only long-term volatility spillover for gold futures returns, while for the base metals, both short-term and long spillover exist. The findings indicate that the Indian metals futures market has started to influence the Chinese metal futures. The results have important implications for policymakers, regulators, industrialists and offshore traders of physical commodities in hedging their positions.

This article examines the impact of global shocks of various nature on the development of the European economy within the framework of the theory and methodology of financial contagion. The content of the concept of “financial contagion” is revealed. The variety of methods of its detection is considered. It is shown that the methodology of financial contagion is useful in the study of financial crises. Based on data on local crises, the crisis burden indicator for the European region is calculated for the period from 1960 to 2019. In Europe, compared with other regions, this indicator takes on the lowest values, so the European economy is more resilient to crises. At the same time, the analysis of some empirical studies shows numerous episodes of financial contagion in the European zone. The results of original investigation which is based on large scale array of empirical data on stock indices and international trade are presented in the article. An advanced dynamic financial contagion test is used for analysis in this study. For situations caused by four global shocks contagion estimates are calculated which show different susceptibility levels of European countries to these shocks. On the other hand, the results of the analysis suggest that the COVID‑19 pandemic has the strongest impact on European countries because the calculated values of test statistics more often and significantly exceed the threshold level during this period (compared with other shocks such as the global financial crisis, BREXIT and the energy crisis). The main channel of contagion is the stock market, not trading. In addition, it can be noted that large European economies are not immune to financial contagion. They are as much its recipients as the weaker countries of the region. At the same time, they play the role of a damper, i. e. they do not transmit financial contagion within the European zone. Finally, the study identifies some directions of financial contagion counteractions in European countries that are linked to its transmission channels. Examples of the transformation of European economic policy caused by the impact of global shocks, contagion effects and stressful situations are given.

Purpose This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the potential contagion of Bitcoin on financial markets and sheds light on the complex interplay between technological advancements, accounting regulatory and financial market stability. Design/methodology/approach The study employs a multi-faceted approach to analyze the impact of BTC systemic risk, technological factors and regulatory variables on Asia–Pacific financial markets. Initially, a single-index model is used to estimate the systematic risk of BTC to financial markets. The study then uses ordinary least squares (OLS) to assess the potential impact of systemic risk, technological factors and regulatory variables on financial markets. To further control for time-varying factors common to all countries, a fixed effect (FE) panel data analysis is implemented. Additionally, a multinomial logistic regression model is utilized to evaluate the presence of contagion. Findings Results indicate that Bitcoin's systemic risk to the Asia–Pacific financial markets is relatively weak. Furthermore, technological advancements and international accounting standard adoption appear to indirectly stabilize these markets. The degree of contagion is also found to be stronger in foreign currencies (FX) than in stock index (INDEX) markets. Research limitations/implications This study has several limitations that should be considered when interpreting the study findings. First, the definition of financial contagion is not universally accepted, and the study results are based on the specific definition and methodology. Second, the matching of daily financial market and BTC data with annual technological and regulatory variable data may have limited the strength of the study findings. However, the authors’ use of both parametric and nonparametric methods provides insights that may inspire further research into cryptocurrency markets and financial contagions. Practical implications Based on the authors analysis, they suggest that financial market regulators prioritize the development and adoption of new technologies and international accounting standard practices, rather than focusing solely on the potential risks associated with cryptocurrencies. While a cryptocurrency crash could harm individual investors, it is unlikely to pose a significant threat to the overall financial system. Originality/value To the best of the authors knowledge, they have not found an asset pricing approach to assess a possible contagion. The authors have developed a new method to evaluate whether there is a contagion from BTC to financial markets. A simple but intuitive asset pricing method to evaluate a systematic risk from a factor is a single index model. The single index model has been extensively used in stock markets but has not been used to evaluate the systemic risk potentials of cryptocurrencies. The authors followed Morck et al. (2000) and Durnev et al . (2004) to assess whether there is a systemic risk from BTC to financial markets. If the BTC possesses a systematic risk, the explanatory power of the BTC index model should be high. Therefore, the first implied contribution is to re-evaluate the findings from Aslanidis et al. (2019), Dahir et al . (2019) and Handika et al . (2019), using a different method.

La crisis sanitaria de COVID-19 ha provocado una versión diferente y más severa del fenómeno del contagio financiero. El estudio tiene como objetivo examinar la incidencia de la pandemia COVID-19 en la presencia de contagio financiero entre el mercado de valores del Perú y mercados bursátiles de varios países emergentes y desarrollados durante la crisis sanitaria Covid-19. La metodología del estudio se basó en la aplicación del método de correlación dinámica condicional para modelos generalizados auto regresivos condicionalmente heterocedásticos multivariantes y la estimación de correlaciones dinámicas condicionadas. Los resultados arrojan incrementos significativos en el periodo de crisis COVID-19 respecto a periodos prepandemia, como evidencia empírica de contagio financiero. Los hallazgos de correlación dinámica condicionada significativos que llaman la atención son los índices de contagio financiero entre el mercado bursátil peruano y los mercados bursátiles de Estados Unidos, Alemania, México y Brasil. La principal conclusión es que los hallazgos de contagio financiero en este trabajo tienen implicaciones para los responsables de formulación de políticas, los inversionistas y los administradores de portafolios de inversión en el Perú.

The article discusses the features of the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in Vietnam in the context of the theory and methodology for identifying the effects of financial contagion. The Vietnamese economy in the 2000 demonstrated steady growth, which allowed minimizing many of the negative consequences of the pandemic. At the same time, the Vietnamese economy was exposed to financial contagion the effects of the transmission of negative shocks from other countries and the subsequent spread between sectors of the national economy. These effects during the pandemic have been empirically confirmed. For this purpose, special tests and an extensive information base on the stock market were used. The results showed that Vietnam was exposed to pandemic shock from China, but was not a transmitter of financial contagion for other Asian countries. In addition, the article fixes the risks of contagion at the sectoral level the most susceptible to contagion were industries such as trade, real estate and food.

The significance and the originality of this paper lies in comparing, crisis effected Asian markets during the Asian Financial Crisis 2007, success of macroeconomic policy adjustments and implementation of tightening strategies to that of the impact of Financial crisis 2007 on the same markets. It is vital to introduce the roles of sample markets such as South Korea, China, Singapore, Malaysia, India, Japan, and Taiwan during the Asian crisis. Although the crisis initiated in Thailand, shocks propelled into South Korea, a first degree (where shocks generate) crisis prone market and spilled the crisis over to second degree markets (highly effected by shocks in first degree markets) of the Philippines, Malaysia, China and Singapore, those mark significant co-movement. This paper canvasses evidence for financial contagion and shock propagation that spread into specific Asian markets, generating from US equity markets. While many papers examined the contagion effect applying long term association methods, in a linear model; this paper concentrates on the conditional mean and variance framework in non-linear structure.

This study bears significant importance for examining a class of dynamic phenomenon. This paper attempts to mark the contagion effect leading to the volatility spillover and specifically defining the structural break among the three important peripheral economies in the Southeast Asian region Japan (Strong), Singapore (Quasi-strong), India (Semi-Strong) with U.S. (Developed) accession and without U.S. accession, applying short term dynamic linkage methods during both pre and post global financial crisis of 2007. This study applied VECH framework to trace indication of contagion, simultaneous GARCH (1,1) for spillover effect and Regime shift is examined with EGARCH(1,1). The results should indicate if due to real linkage US market shock of 2007 propagates into Asian markets of different peripherals, or important Asian markets through contagion and reverse contagion, reacts to market anomalies by successfully diminishing persistant idiosynchratic and non-idiosynchratic shocks.

This paper analyzes sovereign risk shift-contagion, i.e. positive and significant changes in the propagation mechanisms, using bond yield spreads for the major eurozone countries. By emphasizing the use of two econometric approaches based on quantile regressions (standard quantile regression and Bayesian quantile regression with heteroskedasticity) we find that the propagation of shocks in euro's bond yield spreads shows almost no presence of shift-contagion in the sample periods considered (2003–2006, Nov. 2008–Nov. 2011, Dec. 2011–Apr. 2013). Shock transmission is no different on days with big spread changes and small changes. This is the case even though a significant number of the countries in our sample have been extremely affected by their sovereign debt and fiscal situations. The risk spillover among these countries is not affected by the size or sign of the shock, implying that so far contagion has remained subdued. However, the US crisis does generate a change in the intensity of the propagation of shocks in the eurozone between the 2003–2006 pre-crisis period and the Nov. 2008–Nov. 2011 post-Lehman one, but the coefficients actually go down, not up! All the increases in correlation we have witnessed over the last years come from larger shocks and the heteroskedasticity in the data, not from similar shocks propagated with higher intensity across Europe. These surprising, but robust, results emerge because this is the first paper, to our knowledge, in which a Bayesian quantile regression approach allowing for heteroskedasticity is used to measure contagion. This methodology is particularly well-suited to deal with nonlinear and unstable transmission mechanisms especially when asymmetric responses to sign and size are suspected.

The aim of this chapter is to clearly identify the mechanisms of the money market spillovers between the United States, the United Kingdom and France during the interwar period. To describe these mechanisms in detail, a BEKK model, in which we introduce a structural break, is adopted. Our analysis sheds new light on key historical issues: Was the crisis imported into the US? Did France set off interest rate volatility in the rest of the world during the thirties? Does the propagation process of interest rate volatility corroborate the “Golden Fetters” hypothesis?

This paper assesses the extent of the transmission of financial shocks between South Africa and other members of the BRICS grouping in order to infer the degree of contagion during the period 1996-2012. The paper makes use of a multivariate VAR-DCC-GARCH model to this end. The paper finds evidence of cross-transmission and dependence between South Africa and Brazil. However, the empirical results show that South Africa is more affected by crises originating from China, India and Russia while these countries are least affected by crises originating from South Africa. The findings of this paper should be of interest to policy makers in the BRICS grouping should they be considering the possibility of full capital market liberalization and to the international investor who is looking at diversifying portfolios in the BRICS grouping.

We investigate the role of public, private, and external debt in explaining the propagation of nancial shocks during three major nancial crises from 2007-2013. For our analysis, we construct indices of crisis severity in equity markets based on di¤erent tests of contagion and investigate whether the transmission of crises across countries can be related to similar debt conditions. We compare the role of debt stocks and ows to traditional channels for contagion based on regional and trade linkages. Our main nding is that, along with regional linkages, public and external debt play a more important role than trade linkages in driving contagion across equity markets.
