Abstract: | The authors estimate and test the conditional version of an international capital asset pricing model using a parsimonious multivariate GARCH process. Since the approach is fully parametric, they can recover any quantity that is a function of the first two conditional moments. Their findings strongly support a model which includes both market and foreign exchange risk. The evidence also indicates that, with the exception of the U.S. equity market, the premium for bearing currency risk often represents a significant fraction of the total premium. |
