Abstract

This study introduces a novel approach to estimate tail dependence in financial contagion using mixture copulas. Addressing the challenges of weight parameter estimation in conventional models, we propose a Bayesian model averaging method to determine optimal copula weights. Through both simulations and empirical studies, the proposed method demonstrates improved robustness and accuracy, particularly when handling extreme weight scenarios. These advancements offer more reliable measurements of financial contagion, contributing to enhanced risk management and policy-making in interconnected financial markets.
