1 Invesmen Managemen and Fnancal Innovaons, Volume 1, Issue 1, 213 Tesuo Kurosak (USA, Young Shn Km (Germany Sysemac rsk measuremen n he global bankng sock marke wh meseres analyss and CoVaR Absrac Movaed by he growng mporance of sysemc rsk n he global bankng sysem, he auhors measure he rsk of he sysem and he margnal conrbuons of he nsuons n several ways n erms of sock markes. The undversfable rsk appearng n specfc marke secors s called sysemac rsk raher han sysemc rsk. The paper focuses on global bankng socks comprsng global sysemcally mporan fnancal nsuons (G-SIFIs, and dscusses he global sysemac rsk measuremen. To forecas fuure on dsrbuon of reurns, he auhors ulze he mulvarae auoregressve movng average generalzed auoregressve condonal heeroscedascy (ARMA-GARCH model wh he mulvarae normal empered sable (MNTS dsrbued and mulvarae normal dsrbued nnovaons. Ths work sascally demonsraes ha he ARMA-GARCH model wh he MNTS dsrbued nnovaons s a more realsc model for G-SIFI socks. In lne wh prevous sudes, he auhors esmae four sysemac rsk measures: on probably and condonal probably of negave sock reurn movemens, CoVaR, and Co. I s found ha he on probably of negave movemens s a good ndcaor for a sgnfcan ncrease n sysemac rsk. Subsequenly, he auhors nvesgae he relaonshp among he oher hree measures and fnd he followng. Crossseconal lnkages beween and Co are few, f any, bu here s a srong me seres lnkage. On he oher hand, he condonal probably of negave movemens and Co show smlar cross-seconal magnude relaons, hough her me seres lnkage s no clear. Thus, boh and condonal probably of negave movemens renforce each oher and serve a useful reference for Co-based sysemac rsk measuremen.

Inroducon In he modern fnancal sysem, global fnancal nsuons become srongly nerconneced, leadng o awareness of he so-called sysemc rsk. Accordng o he defnon gven by Kaufman and Sco (23, n conras o he rsk ha here wll be a breakdown n ndvdual pars or componens of he fnancal sysem, sysemc rsk refers o he probably ha here wll be a breakdown of he enre fnancal sysem. Moreover, hs rsk s evdenced by he comovemens of he dfferen pars of he fnancal sysem. We can observe he applcably of hs defnon of sysemc rsk n he case of global fnancal sysem n 28, followng he bankrupcy of he Uned Saes (U.S. nvesmen bankng frm Lehman Brohers. The fnancal crss rggered by he falure of Lehman Brohers, referred o as he Lehman shock, had a spllover effec n every secor of he global fnancal marke (sock, bond, currency, cred markes, and he lke. Followng he Lehman shock, he Basel Commee on Bankng Supervson (BCBS began o formulae a new regulaory framework for nernaonal banks known as Basel III o mgae he rsk of a reoccurrence of fnancal crses due o he problem of large fnancal nsuons. One of he mos sgnfcan enhancemens n Basel III relave o Tesuo Kurosak, Young Shn Km, Basel I and II s ha of proecng he global fnancal sysem from sysemc rsk. More specfcally, Basel III calls for addonal capal requremens for global sysemcally mporan fnancal nsuons (G- SIFIs, n conras o he unform capal requremen mposed on every bank n Basel II. More recenly, an nal ls of 29 G-SIFIs (8 from he Uned Saes, 17 from Europe, and 4 from Asa was denfed and publshed based on he BCBS mehodology (Fnancal Sably Board, 211. See he Appendx for he ls of fnancal nsuons. The recen deb crss n Greece calls for greaer aenon o sysemc rsk n anoher way. Because fnancal nsuons ypcally have large posons n soveregn bonds, here was grea concern n he marke ha a sysemc downurn would occur because of he European soveregn deb crss. Ths, n fac, dd occur for one G-SIFI, Dexa Group, because of exposures o hese counres. There are some marke observers wh such a pessmsc vew ha f Greece collapses, he adverse mpac on he fnancal sysem would be greaer han ha of he Lehman shock. Movaed by he growng mporance of sysemc rsk, he purpose of hs paper s o nvesgae such rsk n he global bankng sysem. Ths s done by focusng on sysemc rsk observed n sock markes and nvesgang socks ha are ncluded n G- SIFIs, as of November 211. Our mehodology nvolves me seres analyss o generae a fuure on dsrbuon of sock reurns, and accordngly we esmae rsk measures.

2 Invesmen Managemen and Fnancal Innovaons, Issue 1, 213 We emphasze ha, srcly speakng, we are no gong o quanfy sysemc rsk self gven ha we exclusvely deal wh sock reurns. There are sysemc rsk and sysemac rsk. Even hough boh emerge wh a downslde of oal marke reurns, sysemc rsk s consdered as he rsk ha specfcally arses from nense nerconnecedness and resuls n a breakdown of he enre sysem. Aggregae adverse mpac n a specfc secor of a marke should be classfed as sysemac rsk. For hs reason, we hereafer refer o he rsk ha we quanfy based on sock reurns as sysemac rsk raher han sysemc rsk 1. For me seres analyss, we use a mulvarae auoregressve movng average generalzed auoregressve condonal heeroscedascy (ARMA- GARCH model, where he nnovaon erms are assumed o follow he mulvarae normal empered sable (MNTS and mulvarae normal dsrbuons. The MNTS dsrbuon s a relavely new non- Gaussan sock reurn model proposed by Km e al. (212. Each margnal of he MNTS dsrbuon s referred o as a unvarae normal empered sable (NTS dsrbuon. For sysemac rsk measures, we use he CoVaR mehodology proposed by Adran and Brunnermeer (211. CoVaR, or more specfcally, CoVaR, s defned beween wo nsuons and. CoVaR s he Value a Rsk (VaR of on a ceran condon of. Seng as he marke ndex, we consder he dfference beween CoVaR on s dsress and normal condons, denoed by CoVaR ndex. CoVaR ndex can be nerpreed as he margnal conrbuon of o he overall marke rsk. There are wo problems we address n hs ssue. The frs s how o measure and predc sysemac rsk. The second s how o deermne he nfluence of a fnancal nsuon on he enre fnancal sysem,.e., how o quanfy he rsk spllover effec. From a regulaory perspecve, s crcal o recognze sgnals of a meldown of he fnancal sysem and specfy he fnancal nsuons ha poenally have consderable nfluence on he fnancal sysem. For he frs problem, we propose he on probably of negave sock reurn movemens as a measure of sysemac rsk. Ths s necessary because alhough CoVaR can be a measure of margnal conrbuon o sysemac rsk, s no a measure of sysemac rsk self. For he second problem, we employ CoVaR o quanfy he rsk spllover effec. In addon, we exend CoVaR 1 The basc measure of sysemac rsk s bea. Smlar o bea, we focus on he comovemen beween he enre sysem and each nsuon n he global bankng sock marke. no he counerpar of average VaR (, whch we refer o as Co. An alernave approach for he rsk spllover effec s o descrbe an nsuon s power of nfluence on he sysem as he probably of a negave comovemen of he marke reurn on he condon ha a reurn of he nsuon moves downward. The dea underlnng he use of condonal probably s parallel o he dea of addressng he frs problem va on probably. We examne he relaonshp among, Co, and condonal probably usng regresson analyss. The res of hs paper s organzed as follows. In secon 1, we nroduce an ARMA-GARCH-MNTS model for me seres analyss. Subsequenly, we defne he followng sysemac rsk measures: he on probably and condonal probably of negave movemens, CoVaR, and Co. Secon 2 descrbes he daa o be used. Secon 3 presens he resuls and dscusson. Afer we demonsrae ha he ARMA-GARCH-MNTS model s a beer model for G-SIFI socks, we presen he esmaon resuls of sysemac rsk measures. We also dscuss he relaonshp among he dfferen ypes of measures. The fnal secon concludes he paper. 1. Mehodology Our mehodology for he nvesgaon of sysemac rsk has he followng wo seps: (1 generang he fuure on dsrbuon of sock reurns va he ARMA-GARCH model; and (2 dervng sysemac rsk measures from he predced on dsrbuon. We also brefly explan our smulaon-based esmaon mehods ARMA-GARCH-MNTS model. Our me seres model for sock reurns s he ARMA(1,1- GARCH(1,1 model gven by R 1 1 ( 1 c 2 1 a b, 2 ( (, 1 1 R 2 ( 2, (1 where he ndex =1, 2,, J corresponds o each nsuon, represens a me perod, R s he sock reurn, s he condonal mean, s he condonal sandard devaon, s..d. wh zero mean and un varance, called (sandardzed nnovaon, and he oher symbols are model parameers. We descrbe he mulvarae dsrbuon whose every margnal has zero mean and un varance as 1 2 J sandard. Thus, (,,..., forms a sandard mulvarae dsrbuon. Noe ha ARMA(1,1- GARCH(1,1 s a sandard specfcaon for fnancal daa n he GARCH framework. 185

3 Invesmen Managemen and Fnancal Innovaons, Volume 1, Issue 1, 213 There are several canddae models for each margnal. We choose he NTS dsrbuon because has he ably o capure sylzed properes of sock reurn dsrbuons such as fa-alness and skewness, whch he normal dsrbuon lacks. In addon, we use he normal dsrbuon for he purpose of comparson. The sandard NTS dsrbuon s characerzed by hree parameers: wo fa-alness parameers (, and one skewness parameer. If we assume common (, among NTS margnals wh as a sll free parameer for calbraon, we can on margnals no MNTS va he varance-covarance marx of whou compuaonal dffculy even n a consderably hghdmensonal sysem. See Km e al. (212 for he defnon and esmaon of he MNTS dsrbuon. In he case of he normal model, we can also on margnals no he mulvarae dsrbuon va he varance-covarance marx, because s he sngle parameer of he sandard mulvarae normal dsrbuon. The mulvarae dsrbuon of accouns for he dependen srucures among sock reurns. Followng he same approach as Km e al. (212, we frs esmae he unvarae NTS parameers (,, ( ˆ, ˆ, ˆ for he nnovaon of he represenave sock,.e., he marke ndex. Then, we use he esmaed parameers ( ˆ, ˆ as hose of MNTS. For he CoVaR esmaon, Adran and Brunnermeer (211 manly use quanle regressons supplemened wh he GARCH model wh he normal dsrbued nnovaons as a robusness check. Grard and Ergün (213 use he GARCH model wh Hansen s skewed dsrbued nnovaons. Our mehodology s dfferen from he prevous sudes because we frs apply he mulvarae empered sable dsrbuon o he CoVaR esmaon. Anoher advanage of MNTS s ha has he reproducve propery; he lnear combnaon of NTS dsrbued random varables sll follows NTS. Ths propery enables us o easly deal wh he porfolo of socks. Model (1 forecass he on dsrbuon of sock reurns a +1 perod on he bass of he nformaon up o. We refer o Model (1 wh he sandard MNTS dsrbued and sandard mulvarae normal dsrbued as he ARMA-GARCH-MNTS (AGMNTS model and ARMA-GARCH-mulvarae normal (AGMNormal model, respecvely. We prmarly use an AGMNTS forecas, whereas we use an AGMNormal forecas as a reference Sysemac rsk measures. Before nroducng sysemac rsk measures, we begn wh VaR. VaR s he mos sandard marke rsk measure used by fnancal nsuons. Consder he VaR of s sock reurn R a he confdence level 1 q( q 1, denoed by VaR,. The defnon of VaR, s gven by q q VaR nf{ R Prob( R R }.

Henceforh, for smplcy, every sock reurn dsrbuon s assumed o be connuous. has more desrable properes han VaR as a rsk measure (e.g., he ably o accoun for rsk above he VaR level, ofen referred o as al rsk 1. In leraure, s also called condonal VaR (CVaR 2 or Expeced Shorfall (ES. Whle VaR and are mcro-prudenal rsk measures on he premse of an nsuon beng solaed, alernave macro-prudenal rsk measures for sysemc rsk have recenly been explored n he conex of global fnancal urmol. Whle some consder probably-based approaches (Segovano and Goodhar, 29; Zhou, 21; Gesecke and Km, 211, ohers pu wegh on quanfyng sysemc rsk such as CoVaR (Adran and Brunnermeer, 211, SES and MES (Acharya e al., 21. In lne wh he prevous sudes of sysemc rsk, we nroduce four sysemac rsk measures n sock markes on he bass of VaR and, n whch wo ou of four are probably-based ndcaors: on and condonal probables of negave movemens. The oher wo are measures o quanfy he margnal conrbuon o sysemac rsk: CoVaR and Co Jon probably of negave movemens (JPNM. We consder sysemac rsk as smulaneous negave movemens of sock reurns, where he negave movemen smply means he reurn beng less han he condonal mean. Noe ha hs defnon s conssen wh he defnon of sysemc rsk gven by Kaufman and Sco (23. Accordngly, we nroduce he on probably of negave movemens (JPNM, Prob J JPNM R, (6 1 1 For furher nformaon, see Rachev e al.

However, we expec ha such a low probably capures he common dsress facor among fnancal nsuons and sgnals crss. In a prevous sudy, Segovano and Goodhar (29 esmae he on probably of dsress among fnancal nsuons from he cred defaul swaps daa CoVaR. To nvesgae and quanfy he rsk spllover effec, we adop Adran and Brunnermeer s CoVaR mehodology. CoVaR s a bvarae concep beween wo nsuons and. Whle VaR q, s he q-quanle of he uncondonal dsrbuon of R, CoVaR q, s he -quanle of he condonal dsrbuon of R on a ceran condon of, more specfcally, R. When we specfy he condon of as C (, we denoe R C( R R CoVaR nsead of C ( R CoVaR q,. The mplc defnon of CoVaR for connuous R s gven by Prob C( R R CoVaRq, C( R q.

For he applcaon of CoVaR o sysemac rsk n sock markes, we hghlgh he case of beng a ndex marke ndex. CoVaR q, s regarded as he margnal conrbuon of o he overall sysemac rsk. Regardng he condons, Adran and Brunnermeer (211 defne he dsress and normal condons as he nsuon s loss and reurn beng exacly a s VaR and medan, respecvely, d C ( R { R VaR }, (9 n C ( R { R medan }. However, we adop he modfed defnon by Grard and Ergün (213, where he dsress and normal condons denoe he nsuon s loss and reurn beng above s VaR and whn he range of one sandard devaon from s mean sae, respecvely, d C ( R { R VaR q, }, n C ( R { R }. (1 We make he confdence level 1 q of C d concde wh ha of CoVaR, whch s condoned by C d. As Grard and Ergün pon ou, he modfed defnon has several mers. Frs, focuses on al rsk,.e., he loss above he VaR level, and hus, he resulng CoVaR becomes more nsghful. Second, allows backesng of CoVaR. We can apply he ordnary d ndex C ( R VaR backesng mehods o CoVaR for he days durng whch VaR volaon of occurs. Here, he VaR volaon of means he even when he observed loss R exceeds VaR q, ;.e., he condon C d ( R acually occurs 1. The smples way of VaR backesng s o observe how ofen VaR volaons occur. If one aemps o esmae 1(1 q% VaR, volaons should occur a 1q% of whole observaons. Followng Grard and Ergün (213, we shall use he lkelhood rao (LR ess of he uncondonal and condonal coverages by Chrsoffersen (1998 as a more sophscaed VaR backesng mehod. The condonal coverage es s more desrable han he uncondonal one because can consder he endency for consecuve volaons, whch s observed for ordnary VaR durng fnancal urmol. We defne he CoVaR volaon of as he even when he observed loss d ndex ndex C ( R R exceeds CoVaR durng he VaR q, volaon days of. Through he Chrsoffersen ess, can be esed wheher CoVaR volaon occurs wh a reasonable probably durng VaR volaon days; ha d ndex C ( R s, CoVaR s appropraely esmaed a he q, gven confdence level. In he condonal es of ndex C d ( R CoVaR, he condons are consdered beween wo adacen days of he VaR volaons of.

Because has some mers compared wh VaR, we prmarly use Co raher han CoVaR for he assessmen of sysemac rsk Scenaro smulaon. We rely on scenaro smulaon for esmaon of sysemac rsk measures. I flexbly enables he esmaons of varous rsk measures. On he bass of he AGMNTS (AGMNormal model, we generae a large number S of scenaros abou one-perod-ahead mulvarae sock s 1, s 2, s J, s reurns R 1 ( R 1, R 1,..., R 1, 1 s S va a Mone Carlo smulaon. For he AGMNTS model, he random varables ha follow he MNTS dsrbuon are easly smulaed usng s subordnaed represenaon 1.

See Km e al. ( Daa For emprcal research, we use daly sock logarhmc reurn daa for 28 ou of 29 G-SIFIs, as of November 211. We refer o each sock by s cker symbol or abbrevaon. The ls of G-SIFIs s gven n he Appendx. The only excluson s Banque Populare CdE because s unlsed. We use he S&P global 12 fnancal secor ndex o represen he global bankng sock marke. The sample perod s from January 1 s, 2 o June 3 h, 212. We exclude he U.S. non-busness days from hs perod, whch leads o 326 observaons for each sock. BOC, ACA, and hree Japanese G-SIFIs (MUFG, MHFG, and SMFG do no have suffcen lengh of hsorcal daa o cover he whole sample perod. Regardng BOC and ACA, we backfll hsorcal daa usng Cogny 2.

Esmaon resuls We presen he esmaon resuls of sysemac rsk measures. The measures are esmaed on he bass of he AGMNTS model unless oherwse noed, whereas hey are esmaed on he bass of he AGMNormal model, f needed for a reference. Frs, we valdae he usage of he AGMNTS model wh G-SIFI socks. For hs valdaon, we es he sandard NTS and normal dsrbuonal assumpons for he nnovaon of each sock n he ARMA(1,1- GARCH(1,1 model (1 hrough he Kolmogorov- Smrnov (KS es. Because we have 211 daly esmaons of he ARMA-GARCH model, he KS es s accordngly appled 211 mes for each sock. Table 1 repors he number of days on whch he NTS and normal assumpons for each sock are reeced a hree dfferen sgnfcance levels: 1%, 5%, and 1%. 2 Rsk managemen sofware provded by FnAnalyca, Inc. 3 Specfcally, we subsue Bank of Tokyo-Msubsh UFJ (8315 JP for MUFG, Da-Ich Kangyo Bank (8311 JP, unl Sepember 2 and Mzuho Holdngs (835 JP, from Ocober 2 for MHFG, and Sumomo Msu Bankng Corporaon (8318 JP for SMFG.

6 The resul s ha NTS provdes much beer fng for nnovaons han normal. The only excepon s BOC. Boh NTS and normal assumpons are reeced by all 211 esmaons for he nnovaons of BOC. However, excep BOC, he reecons of he NTS assumpon are much lower han hose of he normal assumpon a every sgnfcance level. The normal assumpon s oally reeced by BOC, BK, MUFG, MHFG, STT, and SMFG even a he 1% sgnfcance level. These observaons suppor he usage of AGMNTS model wh G-SIFI socks. To llusrae he basc rsk profles of G-SIFI socks, we refer o VaR and. We adop an equally weghed porfolo as he mos represenave porfolo, and consder he VaR and of he porfolo o be equally weghed by he 28 G-SIFI socks. Fgure 1 represens he me seres plo of he VaR and of he equally weghed porfolo esmaed by he AGMNTS and AGMNormal models. esmaed from he AGMNTS model ends o be hgher han he AGMNormal model, especally durng fnancal crss, because of s capably of accounng for fa-alness, whereas boh models gve smlar VaR a he 95% confdence level. Through a smple graphc comparson, we fnd ha he AGMNTS model and s he bes combnaon for he purpose of warnng of dsress of ndvdual nsuons or her porfolos n erms of mcro-prudenal perspecve. Subsequenly, we apply he uncondonal and condonal Chrsoffersen s lkelhood rao ess o he esmaed daly VaR of each sock o clarfy wheher Invesmen Managemen and Fnancal Innovaons, Issue 1, 213 he esmaons of VaR are reasonable. Tables 2 and 3 repor he number of volaon days and p-values of he ess for 9% VaR, 95% VaR, and 99% VaR, respecvely. Boh AGMNTS and AGMNormal models show smlar performance on he 9% VaR and 95% VaR esmaons. The AGMNTS model gves fewer VaR volaons and hgher p-values for some socks, whereas he AGMNormal model does hs for oher socks; a hgher p-value means less probably of reecon of he VaR esmaon. However, hs s no he case for he 99% VaR esmaon; he AGMNTS model clearly gves a beer forecas of VaR han he AGMNormal model. The AGMNTS model generally has fewer volaon days and hgher p-values. The number of 99% VaR volaons based on he AGMNTS model s lower han he AGMNormal model, excep for BOC and MUFG. In addon, he number of reecons of each sock s 99% VaR esmaon under he uncondonal and condonal ess are 1 and 17 a he 5% sgnfcance level for AGMNTS, whereas 22 and 25 for AGMNormal, respecvely. The fac ha he 99% VaR esmaon of he AGMNTS model s relavely more accurae han he 9% VaR and 95% VaR esmaons mples ha he deeper al srucure of he dsrbuon s beer capured by he AGMNTS model han he AGMNormal model. Ths propery of he AGMNTS model s desrable for our sudy because our man neres CoVaR cass a spolgh on he deeper al srucure.

Recall ha Co s preferable o CoVaR for rsk assessmen. To compare me seres, we prepare hree regonal porfolos n he Uned Saes, Europe, and Asa. These are equally weghed porfolos comprsng G- SIFI socks belongng o each regon, and are nended o represen he me seres of sock reurns n each regon. In Fgure 3, he of regonal porfolos and Co and CPNM of each regonal porfolo on he marke ndex are ploed n he me seres drecon. The esmaons are made usng boh AGMNTS and AGMNormal models. We observe ha he AGMNTS model gves more conser- vave esmaons of sysemac rsk measures han he AGMNormal model because of s superor descrpve power for al dependences. From a comparson among rsk measures, Co s found o move sgnfcanly parallel o n he me seres drecon. I s a naural consequence ha hgher rsk leads o hgher rsk spllover effecs. On he oher hand, neher does CPNM show srong lnkage wh or Co, nor s very sensve o global adverse mpacs. However, Co and CPNM agree wh he magnude relaon; he nfluence of Asa on he sysem s relavely lower han ha of he Uned Saes and Europe. I also follows our assumpon regardng he regonal power of nfluence on he global fnancal sysem. The suaon s dfferen n he cross-secon drecon. To gan vsual undersandng, he scaer plos of cross-seconal Co vs. and Co vs. CPNM are depced n he upper and lower halves of Fgure 4, respecvely, where he average of rsk measures s aken over each sock s me seres durng he hree urmol perods suggesed by JPNM n Fgure 2. I appears ha he cross-seconal has very weak lnkage wh he cross-seconal Co. Ths resul suppors he dea ha he nsuon ha has hgher rsk s no necessarly he same one as he nsuon whose rsk conrbuon o he enre sysem s larger. The conrbuon o sysemac rsk should be dependen no only on he nsuon s sand-alone rsk measured by, for example, VaR, bu also on oher facors such as nerconnecedness wh oher nsuons. By conras, CPNM has srong posve lnear lnkage wh Co. Though four pons correspondng o he Asan G-SIFIs oule ohers n each scaer plo, hey sll appear o be on a lne.

Because we have 211 daly cross-seconal daases for 28 G-SIFI socks, we eravely run he regresson 211 mes. Table 6 repors he number of sgnfcanly non-zero regresson coeffcens a he 1% level by sgns and average R 2 ou of 211 ess by rsk measures a hree dfferen confdence levels.

For CPNM, n conras, all rals resul n a sgnfcanly posve coeffcen a he 1% level wh very hgh average R 2. Therefore, from sascal evdence, we confrm ha has almos nohng o do wh Co, bu ha CPNM has very srong posve lnkage wh Co n he cross-secon drecon.

The sascal ess demonsrae ha he ARMA-GARCH-MNTS model s hghly preferable o he ARMA-GARCH- MNormal model, manly because of s capably of descrbng fa-alness and skewness of sock reurn dsrbuons. We prepare boh probably-based ndcaors and measures o quanfy he margnal conrbuon o sysemac rsk. To be specfc, we esmae he on probably and condonal probably of negave sock reurn movemens, CoVaR, and Co agans he marke ndex. The on probably of negave movemens urns ou o vvdly descrbe a sgnfcan ncrease of sysemac rsk. I provdes nformaon ha VaR or lacks and could be referred o as a sgnal of fnancal urmol.

Therefore, exclusvely referrng o VaR can be msleadng for a macro-prudenal purpose. These resuls are conssen wh hose of Adran and Brunnermeer (211 for he U.S. fnancal nsuons.
