We first derive a set of formulas to characterize their quantile breakdown point. For the moving block bootstrap and the subsampling, we find a very low quantile breakdown point. A similar robustness problem arises in relation to data-driven methods for selecting the block size in applications. This renders inference based on standard resampling methods useless already in simple estimation and testing settings. To solve this problem, we introduce a robust fast resampling scheme that is applicable to a wide class of time series settings. Monte Carlo simulations and sensitivity analysis for the simple AR(1) model confirm the dramatic fragility of classical resampling procedures in presence of contaminations by outliers. They also show the better accuracy and efficiency of the robust resampling approach under di®erent types of data constellations. A real data application to testing for stock return predictability shows that our robust approach can detect predictability structures more consistently than classical methods.","PeriodicalId":364869,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Simulation Methods (Topic)","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126779707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A key point in the construction is the use of binning to simultaneously achieve computational efficiency and accurate confidence intervals. We illustrate the method for a copula-based Monte Carlo computation of claims written on a basket of underlying assets, and we test it numerically for Portfolio Default Options. For any number of underlying assets or names in a portfolio, the sensitivities of the option price with respect to all the pairwise correlations is obtained at a computational cost which is at most 4 times the cost of calculating the option value itself. For typical applications, this results in computational savings of several order of magnitudes with respect to standard methods.","PeriodicalId":364869,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Simulation Methods (Topic)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122303333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Calibration of Credit Spread Scenarios for Monte Carlo Simulations","authors":"L. Dubrana","doi":"10.2139/SSRN.2083625","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/SSRN.2083625","url":null,"abstract":"The main goal of this paper is to better understand the behavior of credit spreads in the past and the potential risk of unexpected future credit spread changes. One important consideration to note regarding credit spreads is the fact that bond spreads contain a liquidity premium, which compensates for the risk that the bond cannot be sold at fair value due to a lack of liquidity in the market. As the Credit Default Swap (CDS) market demonstrates more liquidity, CDS spreads are a good proxy for credit spreads excluding the liquidity premium. As a result, this paper presents a set of spread shocks derived from both CDS and bond markets in order to capture spread risk excluding or including a liquidity premium in the aforementioned markets. An empirical study demonstrates that an obvious liquidity premium exists between the bond market and the CDS market. Next, an economic study quantifying the appropriate level of spread shocks is examined. Following this, a stochastic model simulated by the Monte Carlo technique including a mean reverting property, a jump process and a predictive model for the volatility is proposed to forecast credit spreads across rating classes. Then, a methodology allowing to transform a non-positive definite correlation matrix into the nearest positive definite correlation matrix is derived. Finally, this paper provides a methodology for computing the marginal spread risk factor contribution applicable to any type of risk factors derived from the Monte Carlo Value-at-Risk method, and offers a practical implementation of Quasi Monte Carlo, a form of low discrepancy sequences offering shorter computational times associated to a higher accuracy than Monte Carlo.","PeriodicalId":364869,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Simulation Methods (Topic)","volume":"197 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133506029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ex ante evaluation is carried out for a conditional cash transfer program, where poor households were given money if the children attended school. A model of occupational choice is used to simulate the expected impact of the program. The results suggest that the transfer would indeed increase school attendance and do more so among girls than boys. While the simulated effect tends to be larger than the actual effect, the latter lies within bootstrapped confidence intervals of the simulation.","PeriodicalId":364869,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Simulation Methods (Topic)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128455792","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We consider the open ascending-bid auction mechanism and develop a model of consumers' behavior when faced with the choice between the two channels. With the simulation we investigate the best designs of the dual channel and compare its performance with that of two alternative selling regimes: only auction and only posted price. We find that the best designs of dual channels with open-bid auctions differ from those of dual channels with sealed bid auctions previously studied. Specifically, the auction length is always set at the maximum level, and the designs are not affected by consumers' sensitivity to a delay in receiving the item. In addition, whether the risk of cannibalization of posted price sales by the auction is high or low, the dual channel regime outperforms the other two regimes when designed optimally. However, if the two channels are managed independently of each other, the dual channel outperforms the single channel only when cannibalization risk is low.","PeriodicalId":364869,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Simulation Methods (Topic)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127419889","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The log EL ratios are constructed through the estimating equations satisfied by the local linear estimators. Limit theories are developed by means of increasing time span and shrinking observational intervals. The results apply to both stationary and nonstationary recurrent diffusion processes. Simulations show that for both drift and diffusion functions, the new procedure performs remarkably well in finite samples and clearly dominates the conventional method in constructing confidence intervals based on asymptotic normality. An empirical example is provided to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":364869,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Simulation Methods (Topic)","volume":"99 Pt B 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133673041","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We show that a general answer to this question does not exist, and that the outcome depends on the liberalization scenario. In order to examine the impact of European and international integration on the regions, the paper develops a numerical simulation model with nine countries and 90 regions. Eastward extension of European integration is beneficial for old as well as new member countries, but within countries the impact varies across regions. Reduction in distance-related trade costs is particularly good for the European peripheries. Each liberalization scenario has a distinct impact on the spatial income distribution, and there is no general rule telling that integration causes more or less agglomeration.","PeriodicalId":364869,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Simulation Methods (Topic)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117103319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
