Index Future Trading, Spot Volatility And Market Efficiency

Abstract: This paper examines the impacts of the listing of index futures trading on spot market volatility, market efficiency and volatility asymmetric responses. To study the effects of the introduction of index futures contracts, a modified GJR-GARCH model has been applied to examine the structural change of conditional variances before and after the introductions of index futures trading in S&P 500, Nikkei 225, ASX all Ordinaries, and an equally weighted international portfolio. Additionally, the coefficient dynamic… Show more

“…Poon and Granger (2003) show that the accuracy of the realized estimate increases with the number of returns (or the sampling rate) computed at higher frequency. Proof of this proposition can also be found in (Barndorff-Nielsen & Shephard, 2002;Chen, 2014). This means that given high-frequency data availability, the latent volatility process is plausibly observable.…”

“…In addition, some research studies finds no significant impact of the introduction of futures markets on the volatility of the underlying at all, or the direction of the impact is uncertain (Board et al , 2001; Santoni, 1987; Pericli and Koutmos, 1997; Darrat et al , 2002; Spyrou, 2005; Bohl et al , 2011; Xie and Huang, 2014; Bohl et al , 2016). Besides, there are some empirical studies taking multiple countries as objects of study, such as performed by Lee and Ohk (1992), Gulen and Mayhew (2000), Yu (2001), Antoniou et al (2005), and Chen (2014); the result indicates that the influence of stock index futures on the volatility of spot market varies in different countries and at different times.…”
