ABSTRACT

This paper selects the most representative Chinese Shanghai Composite Index and the United States S&P500 as the research object, establishes the marginal distribution through EGARCH model, depicts the distribution of market’s closing price indexes, describes the skew, spikes, and fat tail of market data and indicates the reason why it cannot establish appropriate model assuming the traditional normal distribution. And then we construct flexible multivariate distributions through Copula to adapt to the actual distributions of the portfolio investment in stock market, do a quantitative research about risk assessment, and make an analysis of VaR, volatility rate of portfolio risk under the premise that inter-dependence structure of assets are taken into consideration.
