| contents | This study examines the interdependence between cryptocurrencies and international financial indices, such as MSCI World and MSCI Emerging Markets. We compute the value at risk, expected shortfall (ES), and range value at risk (RVaR) and investigate the dynamics of risk spillover. We employ a hybrid approach to derive these risk measures that integrate GARCH models, extreme value models, and copula functions. This framework uses a bivariate portfolio approach involving cryptocurrency data and traditional financial indices. To estimate the above risks of these portfolio structures, we employ symmetric and asymmetric GARCH and both tail flexible EVT models as marginal to model the marginal distribution of each return series and apply different copula functions to connect the pairs of marginal distributions into a multivariate distribution. The empirical findings indicate that the eGARCH EVT-based copula model adeptly captures intricate dependencies, surpassing conventional methodologies like Historical simulations and t-distributed parametric in VaR estimation. At the same time, the HS method proves superior for ES, and the t-distributed parametric method outperforms RVaR. Eventually, the Diebold-Yilmaz approach will be applied to compute risk spillovers between four sets of asset sequences. This phenomenon implies that cryptocurrencies reveal substantial spillover effects among themselves but minimal impact on other assets. From this, it can be concluded that cryptocurrencies propose diversification benefits and do not provide hedging advantages within an investor's portfolio. Our results underline RVaR superiority over ES regarding regulatory arbitrage and model misspecification. The conclusions of this study will benefit investors and financial market professionals who aspire to comprehend digital currencies as a novel asset class and attain perspicuity in regulatory arbitrage. |
