Abstract

The standard GARCH model imposing symmetry on the conditional variance, tends to fail in capturing some important features of the data. This paper, hence, introduces the models capturing asymmetric effect. They are the EGARCH model and the GJR model. We provide the systematic comparison of volatility models focusing on the asymmetric effect of news on volatility. Specifically, three diagnostic tests are provided: the sign bias test, the negative size bias test, and the positive size bias test. This paper shows that there is significant evidence of GARCH-type process in the data, as shown by the test for the Ljung-Box Q statistic on the squared residual data. The estimated unconditional density function for squared residual is clearly skewed to the left and markedly leptokurtic when compared with the standard normal distribution. The observation of volatility clustering is also clearly reinforced by the plot of the squared value of residuals of export volume and values. The unconditional variance of both export volumes and export value indicates that large shocks of either sign tend to be followed by large shocks, and small shocks of either sign tend to follow small shocks. The estimated export volume news impact curve for the GARCH also suggests that $h_t$ is overestimated for large negative and positive shocks. The conditional variance equation of the GARCH model for export volumes contains two parameters ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$ that are insignificant, indicating that the GARCH model is a poor characterization of the conditional variance of export volumes. The conditional variance equation of the EGARCH model for export value, however, shows a positive sign of parameter ${\delta}$, which is contrary to our expectation, while the GJR model exhibits that parameters ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$ are insignificant, and ${\delta}$ is marginally significant. That indicates that the asymmetric volatility models are poor characterization of the conditional variance of export value. It is concluded that the asymmetric EGARCH and GJR model are appropriate in explaining the volatility of export volume, while the symmetric standard GARCH model is good for capturing the volatility.

변동성이나 변이계수의 크기와 미치는 효과의 크기가 반드시 비례하는 것은 아니다. 그것은 변동성을 유발하는 요인이나 변동성의 특성에 차이가 있을 수 있기 때문이다. 그런데 광양항의 수출액과 수출량은 밀접한 선형관계를 가지나 두 변수의 변동률은 낮은 상관관계를 보인다. 이것은 두 변수의 변동성의 특성이 다르다는 것을 의미한다. 이에 물동량과 수출액의 예측하지 못한 요인의 밀도함수가 정규분포 형태를 보이지 않을 뿐만 아니라 부호편의검정, 규모편의검정, 결합검정, Ljung-Box Q 통계량 등이 GARCH와 같은 변동성 모형을 이용하여 분석을 실시하는 것이 합리적임을 보인다. 물동량 변동성에서는 대칭적 GARCH모형이 아닌 비대칭 GARCH모형이 적합한데 비해 수출액 변동성에서는 GARCH모형이 적합함을 보인다. 뉴스충격곡선을 도출하여 물동량의 경우 GJR모형이 EGARCH모형에 비해 나쁜 뉴스에 대한 분산을 과대평가하나 좋은 뉴스에 대한 분산을 과소평가하는 경향이 있음을 밝힌다.
