    Abstract We study the dynamic connectedness between green bonds and the cryptocurrency environmental attention index (ICEA), using the TVP-VAR methodology. The spillovers increase with the level of environmental attention, suggesting cross-market activism by green investors. Denmark, the Euro area, Hong Kong, Australia, and the US are the source of spillovers, while Japan, the UK, and Switzerland are major recipients. The return spillovers exceed volatility spillovers and rise in strength during COVID-19 and the geopolitics-induced military hostilities in Ukraine. Several imperative implications of the findings are notable for policymakers, market participants, and practitioners.

    Abstract This paper analyzes the risk-return characteristics of socially responsible investing by employing a time-varying capital gain and Sharpe ratio analysis for various investment horizons. We employ the MSCI ESG (environmental, social and governance) leaders indices in ten markets encompassing Australia, Canada, Europe, Japan, UK, USA, China, India, Russia, and South Africa. Our sample ranges from 2007-2020. We document that ESG investments have very desirable return and hedging attributes for investors in these markets, and especially so in the USA and emerging markets.

    Abstract We quantify information flows between geopolitical risk (GPR) and global financial assets such as equity, bonds, and commodities, with a focus on the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. We combine transfer entropy and the I-CEEMDAN framework to measure information flows at multi-term scales. Our empirical results indicate that (i) in the short term, crude oil and Russian equity show opposite responses to GPR; (ii) in the medium and long term, GPR information increases the risk in the financial market; and (iii) the efficiency of the financial asset markets can be confirmed on a long-term scale. These findings have important implications for market participants, such as investors, portfolio managers, and policymakers.

    Abstract Are green investments decoupled from the dirty investment such as the fossil fuel markets? We address this issue by extending the literature on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) assets by examining the dynamic relationship between fossil fuels and digital ESG assets proxied by green cryptocurrencies using the TVP-VAR(Time-varying parameter vector auto regression) spillover framework. Furthermore, we analyze the hedging attributes of green cryptocurrencies and fossil fuels in a minimum connectedness framework. The main findings are as follows: First, green cryptocurrencies are the main shock transmitters in all asset systems. Second, the dynamic connectedness between green cryptocurrencies and fossil fuels increased during the COVID-19 and Russia-Ukraine conflicts. Third, green cryptocurrencies have shown considerable hedging effectiveness against the fossil fuels. Our study has important implications for investors, regulators, and policy makers, such as shifting to green cryptocurrencies, regulation of carbon footprint, and promoting eco-friendly assets.

    Abstract This study analyzes the relationship between clean and dirty energy sources and energy metals during the COVID-19 pandemic. We document a sharp increase in connectedness after the COVID-19 pandemic, that is asymmetric at the lower and upper quantiles, with stronger dependence among the variables at the upper quantiles. Among the energy metals, cobalt is the least connected to the energy markets. Finally, our empirical results show a switch in the net connectedness indexes of energy metals and clean energy after January 2021. Our results have implication for investors and policy makers for energy and metal under various market conditions.

    Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic has affected all sectors of the economy resulting in unprecedented challenges for market participants, policymakers, and practitioners. This study envisages this issue from the perspective of real estate investment trusts (REITs), which is a relatively less analysed segment. We examine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on REIT returns for 12 top REIT regimes spread across America, Asia, and Europe under the bullish, bearish, and normal market conditions over the COVID-19 period (specifically from February 02, 2020, to January 24, 2022). We employ the quantile-on-quantile regression and causality-in-quantiles approach. We document a strong (weak) predictive power of COVID-19 cases on REIT returns within the lower (upper) conditioned quantiles. Our findings are of importance to market participants, practitioners, and regulators across REIT regimes.

    Abstract This paper investigates the influence of oil demand, oil supply, and risk-driven shocks on the yield curve in the US between 1995 and 2020. The US term-structure shape is modeled by three structural factors, the level, slope, and curvature. Their empirical analysis is performed according to the Diebold-Li modified variant of the widely used Nelson-Siegel model. The technique of wavelet analysis allows investigating the interrelation of shocks in oil prices and the US yield curve along time and frequency domains, simultaneously. We report on low, medium, and high coherence zones, relative to the oil price movements and the changes in the three yield-curve factors. The low coherence intervals indicate the potential for the three latent factors to be used for creating diversification strategies capable of hedging adverse dynamics in the oil market, potentially workable through global crises. We document the variability of dynamic patterns observable for the US sovereign yield factors on per-type-of-shock basis, evidencing the potential role of the US sovereign debt investments for designing cross-asset hedge strategies for commodity and fixed-income markets.
