Research on Risk Spillover Effect of Chinese and American Capital Markets Based on TVP-VAR Model
China's financial market is facing a transformation from partial opening to comprehensive one.The continuous promotion of financial openness is not only necessary for the healthy development of the financial industry itself and the continuous deepening of financial supply side structural reform,but also an inherent requirement for achieving high-quality economic development.The continuous promotion of financial openness helps to enhance the breadth and depth of the financial market,promote efficient allocation of global capital,and enhance financial discourse power.But the impact of external risks brought about by financial openness on a country's economic and financial stability and security has become increasingly prominent.How to effectively resolve external financial risks,clarify risk information transmission mechanisms,and prevent financial risk transmission is of great significance for ensuring the stable development of the capital market,facing global competition in resource allocation,continuously promoting high-level financial openness,and helping China's economic rise.The research objective is to analyze the risk spillovers between capital markets deeply and resolve the external financial risks timely.On the basis of fully considering the intermediary role of the Hong Kong stock market in risk spillover between the Chinese and American stock markets,the daily data of major stock indices in the Chinese and American stock markets from January 1,2007 to December 30,2020 is used to construct risk spillover index based on the TVP-VAR model firstly.The static risk spillover coefficient is used to analyze the risk spillover relationship between different markets.Secondly,considering the financial markets themselves and their interrelationships are constantly changing in reality,the dynamic risk spillover coefficient is used to study the interrelationships between different financial markets in different periods.Once again,in order to analyze the risk spillover and acceptance relationship in different periods of each market deeply,the total net risk spillover coefficient of each market and the net bidirectional risk spillover coefficient between markets are constructed and analyzed.Finally,in order to deeply analyze the causal relationship between dynamic spillover effects in various markets,based on the analysis of dynamic spillover effects in various stock markets,Granger causality tests are used to further explore the Granger causal relationship between dynamic spillover effects in various markets.The research conclusions show that:(1)there is a strong correlation between markets.The risk spillover within the market is generally higher than that between markets,and the risk spillover of the U.S.stock market to the A-share market is usually larger in the crisis period;(2)there is a large risk spillover between the stock markets in 2011 and 2018.A-share had risk spillover to the three major U.S.stock indexes in 2015 and 2018,while in other periods,the three major U.S.stock indexes were mainly risk spillover to others;(3)the Granger causality test shows that under the significance of 5%,except the SPX and IXIC,the dynamic net spillover effects of the one markets are Granger causality of each other;(4)the Granger causality test shows that with the implementation of policies such as the Shenzhen-HK Stock Connect,Shanghai-HK Stock Connect,and Mutual Fund Connect,the internationalization level of the A-share market is gradually improving,and it has the ability to partially influence stock markets such as Hong Kong,but this influence is more regional.In response to the conclusions,this paper suggests that:(1)In the future,we should further increase the efforts of financial market reform and opening up,clarify the status and role of China's stock market in the inter-national stock market,and enhance the internationalization level of the financial market and the independence of China's stock market situation.(2)With the continuous improvement of economic globalization,local financial risks will evolve into global financial crises through economic and trade activities,which requires governments to have a global,forward-looking and coordinated approach when formulating economic policies,and to strengthen cooperation between governments and regulatory authorities.
