dc.description.abstract | In this thesis, we investigate two issues related with the modeling of term structure of interest rates and equity returns. Understanding the dynamics of the term structure of interest rates and equity returns is important for various financial market activities such as asset allocation, derivatives pricing, hedging, and risk management. In chapter 2, we investigate the role of stochastic volatility and return jumps in reproducing the volatility dynamics and the shape characteristics of the KOSPI 200 returns distribution. Using efficient method of moments and reprojection analysis, we find that stochastic volatility models, both with and without return jumps, capture return dynamics surprisingly well. The stochastic volatility model without return jumps, however, cannot fully reproduce the conditional kurtosis implied by the data. Return jumps successfully complement this gap. We also find that return jumps are essential in capturing the volatility smirk effects observed in short-term options. In chapter 3, we investigate an unexplored but important issue in international term structure models. Recent evolution in international financial market has observed diverse heteroskedatic co-movement of the two-country interest rates wherein conditional negative correlations are not rare. We extend the canonical model of one country affine term structure models and quadratic term structure models into the two-country setup. We show both theoretically and empirically that two-country affine models cannot accommodate sign-switching correlations between the interest rates of two countries without violating the positivity of the nominal interest rates. On the contrary, our quadratic model is able to explain this feature as well as guarantee the positivity of the interest rates. Using the efficient method of moments, we find that the two-country quadratic model successfully explains the joint dynamics of Eurodollar yields, Euroyen yields, and Dollar/Yen exchange rate ret... | eng |
