We described the global epidemic status of EVD from 1976–2021, and assessed and ranked the importation risk of EVD from the diseaseoutbreaking countries into China using the risk matrix and Borda count methods, respectively.Results From 1976–2021, EVD mainly occurred in western and central Africa, with the highest cumulative number of cases(14,124 cases) in Sierra Leone, and the highest cumulative fatality rate(85%) in the Congo. Outbreaks of EVD have occurred in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Guinea since 2018. The importation risk into China varies across countries with outbreaks of disease.The Democratic Republic of the Congo had an extremely high risk(23 Borda points), followed by Guinea and Liberia. Countries with a moderate importation risk were Nigeria, Uganda, Congo, Sierra Leone,Mali, and Gabon, while countries with a low importation risk included Sudan, Senegal, and Co te d’Ivoire.Conclusion China is under the risk of EVD importation with the globalization and severe epidemic status of EVD. Key attention need to be paid to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Guinea, and Liberia. Therefore, it is necessary to prevent and prepare in advance for importation risk in China.展开更多

文摘随着中国金融市场的高水平开放,中国应对外部输入性风险的压力将进一步上升。探索中国金融市场所面临的输入性风险动态变化并构建预警体系具有重要意义。本文运用时变参数向量自回归模型(TVP-VAR)和深度神经网络模型SCInet(Sample Convolution and Interaction Network),对我国金融市场输入性风险进行测度和前瞻性预警。研究发现:(1)TVP-VAR模型能有效识别极端风险事件发生前的风险积累,极端风险事件时期输入性风险水平会显著提高;(2)通过与主要发达国家(或地区)和发展中国家的输入性风险对比,发现发达经济体的输入性风险波动幅度较小,通过研究各国(地区)对我国的输入性风险,发现香港地区对我国内地的风险输入水平最高,以美国为主的发达国家和以印度为主的发展中国家也向我国输送了大量风险;(3)相比于其他机器学习和神经网络模型,SCInet模型具有最优的预警性能,在输入性风险异常波动前能提前预警。本研究或可为个人规避风险、企业可持续发展、国家金融稳定提供参考和帮助。
