Abstract

During the deepest financial crisis in mid 2007-2009, increasing volatility of Indonesian stock market index were captured. Increasing volatility of the series is acommon event since the volatility of financial market around the globe is increasing likewise. Yet, whether it is a sign of volatility spillover or comovement still emerges as amystery.This paper seeks to explain the causes of the increasing volatility in domestic currency and stock market. To investigates the hypothesis in tranquil and crisis periods, theobservation period of January 2, 2003 to May 31, 2010 is splitted into two sub-periods with different levels of volatility. Using VAR-EGARCH on daily stock market index of Indonesia (IDX), S&P 500, and the bilateral exchange rate, we documented the existence of meteor shower and heatwaves in Indonesia stock market and exchange rate during crisis period. This finding implies that in crisis period, Indonesian stock market and exchange rate volatility were not only affected by market specific factors, but were alsoaffected by volatility of the major stock market. We also captured asymmetric affects in the model which suggests that negative shock in the major stock market will increase the volatility of domestic stock market more than positive shock will.Keywords: volatility spillovers, comovement, contagion, VAR-EGARCH

Abstract

This paper studies macroeconomic impacts of global economic policy uncertainty shocks to a small open economy. To that end, I use monthly Indonesian data along with a measure of global economic policy uncertainty developed by Baker et al. (2016) and Davis (2016) and estimate a time-varying parameter Bayesian structural VAR with non-recursive identification using framework proposed by Canova and Pérez Forero (2015). I find that global economic policy uncertainty shocks lead to a reduction in prices, interest rate, and trade balance in all global events included in the estimation. The impact on output, however, largely varies across events. A surprise movement of global economic policy uncertainty triggers a contraction in output around the 2008 global financial crisis but, following the 2016 US presidential election, output reacts positively to the shock. Despite these notable variations in the responses of output, the proportion of the forecast error variance of output due to the shock is very small and decreases rapidly over time—which indicates that the shock presents an inconsequential effect to output. Nonetheless, the proportion of the forecast error variance of trade balance due to the shock is considerably higher than the forecast error variance of output and inflation. This further suggests that, via international trade, a global economic policy uncertainty shock could still pose harm for Indonesia.
