Abstract
The primary objective of this paper is to analyze the volatility dynamics and spillover, symmetric and asymmetric, among BRICS countries' stock markets. The paper employed dynamic conditional correlation and asymmetric generalized dynamic conditional correlation models to examine the bidirectional volatility spillover. The study preferred these sophisticated and flexible models as they have several advantages over other econometric models. The findings of the study indicate a long-term integration and a significant bidirectional spillover effect (both symmetric and asymmetric), suggesting a close relationship among the stock markets of BRICS countries. Consequently, diversifying one's portfolio between these markets would not yield substantial economic value for investors. Also, the study finds the same pattern of flow in asymmetric volatility spillover but at a different significance level. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first study investigating the asymmetric volatility spillover effect among BRICS countries' stock indices using the DCC-MGARCH and AGDCC-MGARCH models.
期刊介绍:
The aim of the Journal, Decision, is to publish qualitative, quantitative, survey-based, simulation-based research articles at the national and sub-national levels. While there is no stated regional focus of the journal, we are more interested in examining if and how individuals, firms and governments in emerging economies may make decisions differently. Published for the management scholars, business executives and managers, the Journal aims to advance the management research by publishing empirically and theoretically grounded articles in management decision making process. The Editors aim to provide an efficient and high-quality review process to the authors.
The Journal accepts submissions in several formats such as original research papers, case studies, review articles and book reviews (book reviews are only by invitation).
The Journal welcomes research-based, original and insightful articles on organizational, individual, socio-economic-political, environmental decision making with relevance to theory and practice of business. It also focusses on the managerial decision-making challenges in private, public, private-public partnership and non-profit organizations. The Journal also encourages case studies that provide a rich description of the business or societal contexts in managerial decision-making process including areas – but not limited to – conflict over natural resources, product innovation and copyright laws, legislative or policy change, socio-technical embedding of financial markets, particularly in developing economy, an ethnographic understanding of relations at a workplace, or social network in marketing management, etc.
Research topics covered in the Journal include (but not limited to):
Finance and Accounting
Organizational Theory and Behavior
Decision Science
Public Policy-Economic Insights
Operation Management
Innovation and Entrepreneurship
Information Technology and Systems Management
Optimization and Modelling
Supply Chain Management
