In this paper, the authors employ correlation and cluster analyses in order to investigate the impact of stock exchange consolidation on volatility of market returns, in terms of a financial integration between involved stock exchanges before and after the merger. By using the Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity （GARCH） （1.1） model, the authors test the change in volatilities of national stock exchange markets involved in the following stock exchange integration case studies： Euronext, Bolsasy Mercados Espanoles （BME）, and Swedish-Finnish financial services company （OMX）. These three case studies are considered as completed cases of market consolidation, where the data are available enough to conduct the current research. By using daily data of national returns of engaged European stock markets from 1995 to 2007, the paper investigates the influence of stock exchange consolidation on volatility of national stock market returns. The obtained results confirm the gradual decrease of volatility in each of the integrated stock markets. However, the level of decrease in terms of volatility depends on economic characteristics of each engaged market and its degree of integration with other financial services. The results of correlation and cluster analyses confirm that stock operators have created significantly non-official integration links through cross-memberships and cross-listings even before the consolidations. Thus, the mergers among stock exchanges can be considered as the rational consequences of the high internal co-movements between involved markets. Furthermore, stock exchange markets with strong non-official integration links show an immediate decrease of volatility after the merger, meanwhile for others, it takes several years before the volatility can decrease as markets should reach the full integration.展开更多

In this study, a multiscale ensemble forecasting model is proposed. The original financial series are decomposed firstly different scale components （i.e., approximation and details） using the maximum overlap discrete wavelet transform （MODWT）. The approximation is pre- dicted by a hybrid forecasting model that combines autoregressive integrated moving average （ARIMA） with feedforward neural network （FNN）. ARIMA model is used to generate a linear forecast, and then FNN is developed as a tool for nonlinear pattern recognition to correct the estimation error in ARIMA forecast. Moreover, details are predicted by Elman neural networks. Three weekly exchange rates data are collected to establish and validate the forecasting model. Empirical results demonstrate consistent better performance of the proposed approach.展开更多
