Abstract:In this paper, we propose a new approach to studying the spread of financial crises, their effects, and origins. To do this, an empirical measure of the degree of crisis transmission is introduced in the context of a crisis propagation model that corresponds to a multifactorial switching model with random endogenous transition variable. The latter is modeled as a diffusion process and allows us to determine whether crisis transmission is perfect, partial, or weak and whether it is due to contagion or interdepe… Show more
