This paper studies the dependence structure and information spillover effect between the RMB exchange rate and the Chinese stock market based on the R-vine copula model and spillover index model. The results show that due to the occurrence of the trade war, the correlation between the three RMB exchange rate indicators and the two stock market indicators increases in varying degrees. In the intensity of spillover, the information spillover of the stock market to the RMB exchange rate is significantly enhanced, and the information spillover intensity of the RMB Index to the stock market increases, but the information spillover of the US dollar and Hong Kong dollar exchange rates to the stock market is significantly weakened. In the direction of spillover, the spillover of the RMB Index and stock market shows the characteristics of alternating transformation, while the exchange rate of a single currency and the stock market shows a one-way transmission from the stock market to the exchange rate. Additionally, the information spillover between the RMB exchange rate and the stock market is closely related to the degree of market openness. The RMB Index contains more information than the exchange rate of a single currency.

Abstract. Reliable estimates of missing streamflow values are relevant for water resources planning and management. This study proposes a multiple dependence condition model via vine copulas for the purpose of estimating streamflow at partially gaged sites. The proposed model is attractive in modeling the high dimensional joint distribution by building a hierarchy of conditional bivariate copulas when provided a complex streamflow gage network. The usefulness of the proposed model is firstly highlighted using a synthetic streamflow scenario. In this analysis, the bivariate copula model and a variant of the vine copulas are also employed to show the ability of the multiple dependence structure adopted in the proposed model. Furthermore, the evaluations are extended to a case study of 54 gages located within the Yadkin-Pee Dee River Basin, the eastern U. S. Both results inform that the proposed model is better suited for infilling missing values. After that, the performance of the vine copula is compared with six other infilling approaches to confirm its applicability. Results demonstrate that the proposed model produces more reliable streamflow estimates than the other approaches. In particular, when applied to partially gaged sites with sufficient available data, the proposed model clearly outperforms the other models. Even though the model is illustrated by a specific case, it can be extended to other regions with diverse hydro-climatological variables for the objective of infilling.

Several data-driven and hybrid models are univariate and not considered the dependance structure of multivariate random variables, especially the multi-site river inflow data, which requires the joint distribution of the same river basin system. In this paper, we proposed a Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (CEEMDAN) Vine copula-based approach to address this issue. The proposed hybrid model comprised on two stages: In the first stage, the CEEMDAN is used to extract the high dimensional multi-scale features. Further, the multiple models are used to predict multi-scale components and residuals. In the second stage, the residuals obtained from the first stage are used to model the joint uncertainty of multi-site river inflow data by using Canonical Vine. For the application of the proposed two-step architecture, daily river inflow data of the Indus River Basin is used. The proposed two-stage methodology is compared with only the first stage proposed model, Vector Autoregressive and copula-based Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average models. The four evaluation measures, that is, Mean Absolute Relative Error (MARE), Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD), Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE) and Mean Square Error (MSE), are used to observe the prediction performance. The results demonstrated that the proposed model outperforms significantly with minimum MARE, MAD, NSE, and MSE for two case studies having significant joint dependance. Therefore, it is concluded that the prediction can be improved by appropriately modeling the dependance structure of the multi-site river inflow data.

Based on the canonical vine (C-vine) copula approach, this paper examines the interdependence between the exchange rates of the Chinese Yuan (CNY) and the currencies of major Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries. The differences in the dependence structure and degree between currencies before and after the Belt and Road (B&R) Initiative were compared in order to investigate the changing role of the Renminbi (RMB) in the ASEAN foreign exchange markets. The results indicate a positive dependence between the exchange rate returns of CNY and the currencies of ASEAN countries and show the rising power of RMB in the regional currency markets after the B&R Initiative was launched. Besides this, the Malaysian Ringgit proved to be most relevant to the other ASEAN currencies, thus playing an important role in the stability of regional financial markets. Moreover, evidence of tail dependence was found in the returns of three currency pairs after the B&R Initiative, which implies the presence of asymmetric dependence between exchange rates. The results from time-varying C-vine copulas further confirmed the robustness of the results from the static C-vine copulas.

Copulas are useful tools for modeling the dependence structure between two or more variables. Copulas are becoming a quite flexible tool in modeling dependence among the components of a multivariate vector, in particular to predict losses in insurance and finance. In this article, we study the dependence structure of some well-known real life insurance data (with two components mainly) and subsequently identify the best bivariate copula to model such a scenario via VineCopula package in R. Associated structural properties of these bivariate copulas are also discussed.

Due to the important influence of inflation on macro-economic variables, researchers pay tremendous amount of attention to its determinants. Accordingly, in the following research, the impact of 13 variables on inflation during the period of 1338-1391 by using Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) method has been investigated for Iran economy. The ranking of the 13 explanatory variables are obtained based on the probability of their inclusion in model. The results show that the energy price and money imbalance (lagged ratio of money to nominal output) have expected and positive effect on inflation rate with a probability of 100 % and they are considered as the key explanatory variables in inflation equation. The energy price, money imbalance, money growth and market exchange rate growth have the first to fourth rank respectively. The influence of the production growth is not significant on the inflation in the short-run but it gradually influences the inflation through money imbalance channel in the long-run. In addition, most of the disinflation effects due to decrease in money supply will appear with delay. These results imply the dominance of monetary variables on inflation with cost push factors not having important impacts on prices. Also, oil revenue and imports influence the inflation through exchange rate channel, production and money velocity.
