Modelling oil price volatility

autoregressive (SVAR) model to examine the underlying factors of oil price price volatility”, Economic Review, Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, Third  This suggests that, in modelling oil prices, the issue of regime shifts need to be taken into account through using models that do accommodate for regime changes. Third, it is clear from the plot of oil prices that prices have not been stable; there is evidence of high volatility. In this paper, we examine the volatility of crude oil price using daily data for the period 1991–2006. Our main innovation is that we examine volatility in various sub-samples in order to judge the robustness of our results. Abstract.

We find evidence of persistence and leverage effects in the oil price volatility. While further extensions can be pursued, the consideration of asymmetric effects as well as structural breaks should not be jettisoned when modelling oil price volatility.

Abstract. In this paper, we evaluate the comparative performance of volatility models for oil price using daily returns of crude oil price. The innovations of this paper are in three folds: (i) we consider two prominent oil prices namely Brent and West Texas Intermediate (WTI); (ii) we analyse these prices across three subsamples namely periods before, during and after the global financial Modelling the Impact of Oil Price Volatility on Investment Decision-Making Being a Thesis Submitted for the Degree of .

Some amount of price volatility is an inevitable consequence of a market-based economy. Since companies invest based on expectations about prices, high price volatility creates uncertainty and risk, and risk premiums rise to compensate. Volatile Oil price volatility refers toward short term increase and decrease in oil prices which effect the economies, whether developing or developed, for their future plan and targets. So it is very important for economies to anticipate the oil price volatility. Increasing Supply and Demand as a Response to Oil Price Volatility. Policy analysis that focuses on demand for oil or supply of oil alternatives typically underscores the impact of either on prices. But policy could also, in principle, alter volatility directly by increasing the responsiveness of oil supply and demand.
