Духовно-консервативний феномен Григорія Сковороди та реальність українського необароко у контексті відродження християнської індивідуальності

This paper analyzes common factors in the continuous volatility component, co-extreme and co-jump behavior of a sample of stock market indices. In order to identify those components in stock price processes during a trading day we use high-frequency data and techniques. We show that in most of the cases one common factor is enough to describe the largest part of the international variation in the continuous part of volatility and that this factor’s importance has increased over time. Furthermore, we find strong evidence for asymmetries between extremely negative and positive co-extreme close-open returns and of negative and positive co-jumps across countries

Long run real exchange rate determinants: evidence from eight new member states, 1993-2003

In this paper, we estimate bilateral equilibrium real exchange rates for a group of eight new eu member states against the euro, using new and sophisticated panel-cointegration techniques. We document a stable significant positive link between productivity levels and the corresponding real exchange rate levels and a stable significant and negative link between openness and the real exchange rate. We find real exchange rate misalignments to be small and weakly mean-reverting. In the context of entry into erm-ii and emu for most of these countries over time, the results stress the importance of allowing countries to adjust to inflation pressure and real exchange rate appreciation, either through nominal appreciation or temporarily higher domestic inflation.

On the importance of indirect banking vulnerabilities in the Eurozone

This paper investigates banking and sovereign distress in the Eurozone and the importance of direct and indirect financial exposures. We use BIS cross-border banking claims to link member states in a GVAR framework and jointly model sectoral CDS premia. Based on balance sheet positions of an intermediate debtor country, we calculate indirect exposures and asses how the level of interconnectedness is impacted when indirect links are accounted for. We notice a general slowdown in financial integration and a reduction in cross-border assets in the hope of limiting international contagion. By differentiating between direct and indirect links, we show that the impact of reduced weights on core member states is mostly insignificant and that deleveraging strategies are not generally able to successfully reduce risk
