摘要:This paper measures systemic risk in eight Asian foreign exchange markets between 2015 and 2021. We define systemic risk as the risk of significant devaluation in a large number of currencies. Our measures, derived using a time-varying factor copula model, can take into account heterogeneous and dynamic dependencies among markets. Our empirical findings reveal that (1) systemic risk spiked during the US-China trade conflict and the COVID-19 pandemic; (2) Among the currencies studied, the Japanese yen contributes most to systemic risk, while it is the least vulnerable to systemic shocks; (3) Higher levels of regional trade and financial integration increase a currency's vulnerability to systemic risk in the Asian foreign exchange markets.
