Abstract
This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the volatility of green bonds compared to conventional bonds and the energy market. Utilizing a dataset comprising daily returns of four S&P indices as proxies for chosen markets from October 2013 to October 2023, the study employs advanced methodologies including DCC-GARCH, Diebold and Yilmaz (2012) and Baruník and Křehlík (2018). The findings reveal significant volatility spillovers between green bonds and both conventional bonds and energy markets, with notable differences in short-term and long-term spillover dynamics. The analysis demonstrates that green bonds act both as a transmitter and receiver of volatility, emphasizing their integration into the broader financial system. The analysis contributes to the growing body of knowledge on green bonds by being one of the first to use a ten-year daily returns dataset and to apply advanced techniques which measure existence, direction and magnitude of volatility spillovers between green bonds and selected markets.
期刊介绍:
Research in International Business and Finance (RIBAF) seeks to consolidate its position as a premier scholarly vehicle of academic finance. The Journal publishes high quality, insightful, well-written papers that explore current and new issues in international finance. Papers that foster dialogue, innovation, and intellectual risk-taking in financial studies; as well as shed light on the interaction between finance and broader societal concerns are particularly appreciated. The Journal welcomes submissions that seek to expand the boundaries of academic finance and otherwise challenge the discipline. Papers studying finance using a variety of methodologies; as well as interdisciplinary studies will be considered for publication. Papers that examine topical issues using extensive international data sets are welcome. Single-country studies can also be considered for publication provided that they develop novel methodological and theoretical approaches or fall within the Journal''s priority themes. It is especially important that single-country studies communicate to the reader why the particular chosen country is especially relevant to the issue being investigated. [...] The scope of topics that are most interesting to RIBAF readers include the following: -Financial markets and institutions -Financial practices and sustainability -The impact of national culture on finance -The impact of formal and informal institutions on finance -Privatizations, public financing, and nonprofit issues in finance -Interdisciplinary financial studies -Finance and international development -International financial crises and regulation -Financialization studies -International financial integration and architecture -Behavioral aspects in finance -Consumer finance -Methodologies and conceptualization issues related to finance
