Abstract
The implications of spillovers between traditional and sustainable markets have drawn extensive attention as the world’s financial markets become more intricate and interconnected. We construct a multi-layer dynamic spillover network to characterize the risk contagion between sustainable markets (i.e., carbon, clean energy, and gas) and traditional markets (i.e., crude oil, gold, and equities). In particular, we examine the dynamic spillover characteristics across markets by leveraging higher-order moments and the DBN-LGCNET model. Our results reveal robust interconnections between the crude oil and gold markets in the higher-order moments network, whereas sustainable markets exhibit notable linkages at the skewness and kurtosis layers. Spillover relationships across different market layers display similarities and pronounced heterogeneity. These results present a fresh viewpoint for investors on portfolio diversification and risk mitigation while offering empirical evidence to aid policymakers in promoting green finance.
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
