This study examines migration and cascading of credit default swaps (CDS) risks among four oil-related sectors -autos, chemical, oil and natural gas production, and utility—in two models. Model 1 encompasses fundamental variables, and Model 2 includes market risks. The key finding of the study suggests that replacing the two financial fundamental variables (the 10-year Treasury bond rate and the S&P 500 index) of Model 1 with the two market risk variables (the S&P VIX and the Oil VIX) of Model 2 reduce the long- and short-run risk migration and cascading in the second model for both the full sample and the subperiod. The CDS and VIX indices both reflect fear and risk on their own. Among the four oil-related CDS spreads, the chemical and auto spreads are the most responsive to the other credit and market risks and the fundamentals in the long-run, while those of utility and oil and natural gas sectors are not responsive. The recent quantitative easing in the United States adds to spikes in the levels of the chemical CDS and the S&P 500 index in Model 1, and to the S&P VIX and default risk spread in Model 2. Implications for model builders and policy makers are also discussed.

Non-linear structure of the Turkish interest rate transmission mechanism Bozok, İhsan; Yıldırım Kasap, Dilem; Department of Economics (2012) This paper empirically analyses the interest rate transmission mechanism from money market rate to lending rate by utilizing the bank-level data in the distinction of cash, automobile, housing and corporate loans in Turkey. The main objective is to reveal the possible asymmetries of the adjustment process as well as the extent of the pass through. Empirical results indicate that mark-up value is the minimum for corporate rates on average, followed by housing, automobile and cash rates, respectively. Additio...
Drivers of the oil price : an empirical analysis of the effect of oil imports by OECD regions Güneyligil, Ümmügülsüm; Akbostancı Özkazanç, Elif; Department of Economics (2013) This study analyzes the effect of oil imports by OECD regions on crude oil price by using Kaufmann’s price rule as a benchmark. Using the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) cointegration approach; it is found that there is cointegration between crude oil prices, days of forward consumption of OECD crude oil stocks, OPEC quota, OPEC cheat and key variables imported crude oil by OECD. However, ARDL based error correction models (ECM) indicate that regional factors are not a significant determinant of crude...
Volatility spillover from world oil spot markets to aggregate and electricity stock index returns in Turkey Soytaş, Uğur; Oran, Adil (2011-01-01) This study examines the inter-temporal links between world oil prices, ISE 100 and ISE electricity index returns unadjusted and adjusted for market effects. The traditional approaches could not detect a causal relationship running from oil returns to any of the stock returns. However, when we examine the causality using Cheung-Ng approach we discover that world oil prices Granger cause electricity index and adjusted electricity index returns in variance, but not the aggregate market index returns. Hence, ou...
The impact of crude oil prices on financial market indicators: copula approach Kayalar, Derya Ezgi; KÜÇÜKÖZMEN, CUMHUR ÇOŞKUN; Kestel, Sevtap Ayşe (2017-01-01) Oil price changes have varying impacts on the financial indicators of global markets and economies. This study aims to explore the dependence structure between crude oil prices and stock market indices, as well as the exchange rates in a number of economies categorized with respect to their status as developing/emerging markets, and oil importer/exporter countries. Dependence structures in this study are evaluated in considerable depth using copula models. The broad time period covered allows the investigat...
Do Global Risk Perceptions Play a Role in Emerging Market Equity Return Volatilities? Hacihasanoglu, Erk; Simga-Mugan, F. N. Can; Soytaş, Uğur (2012-07-01) This paper investigates whether global risk perceptions lead emerging market return volatilities. In so doing, we analyzed the period of interest in three parts to determine the effects of the changes in global risk perceptions on the volatility of emerging markets. We uncovered volatility spillover from risk perceptions to the MXEF returns before the crisis. Our results show that all the effects on emerging market volatilities are severed in 2008, during which MXEF follows a downward trend. However, we obs...
