This paper tries to empirically investigate whether the jump risk of Korean stock market may be statistically useful in explaining the Korean CDS (5Y) premium rate. This paper uses the jump-diffusion model with heteroscedasticity to estimate the conditional volatility of KOSPI from 7/2/2007 to 7/30/2010. The total volatility of Korean stock market is decomposed into a heteroscedasticity and a jump risk by using the jump-diffusion model. The finding is that the jump risk in stead of heteroscedasticity in Korean stock market can explain the Korean CDS premium rate.

This paper proposes a second-order jump diffusion model to study the jump dynamics of stock market returns via adding a jump term to traditional diffusion model. We develop an appropriate maximum likelihood approach to estimate model parameters. A simulation study is conducted to evaluate the performance of the estimation method in finite samples. Furthermore, we consider a likelihood ratio test to identify the statistically significant presence of jump factor. The empirical analysis of stock market data from North America, Asia, and Europe is provided for illustration.

In this article we analyse the behaviour of the Nepali stock market and movements of stock prices of selected companies using (i) Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) (ii) geometric Brownian motion model (gBm) and (iii) Merton’s jump-diffusion model. Using the daily returns of the NEPSE index and the daily returns of stock prices of selected companies we estimate the geometric Brownian motion model and Merton’s jump-diffusion model. Further, we compare both models to identify the best fit for the Nepali stock market data. Keywords: Black-Scholes model, Efficient Market Hypothesis, geometric Brownian motion, Merton’s jump-diffusion Model, Variance Ratio Test
