Modeling and Decoupling Systemic Risk
Identifying systemic risk patterns in geopolitical, economic, financial, environmental, transportation, epidemiological systems and their impacts is the key to risk management. This paper proposes a new nonlinear time series model: autoregressive conditional accelerated Fréchet (AcAF) model and introduces two new endopathic and exopathic competing risk measures for better learning risk patterns, decoupling systemic risk, and making better risk management. The paper establishes the probabilistic properties of stationarity and ergodicity of the AcAF model. Simulation demonstrates the efficiency of the proposed estimators and the AcAF model's flexibility in modeling heterogeneous data. Empirical studies on the stock returns in S P 500 and the cryptocurrency trading show the superior performance of the proposed model in terms of the identified risk patterns, endopathic and exopathic competing risks, being informative with greater interpretability, enhancing the understanding of the systemic risks of a market and their causes, and making better risk management possible.
