Abstract

This study analyzes the spillover effects of returns and volatility between the commodity market and the maritime freight market across various frequency domains (short-term, medium-term, long-term). The key findings of the study can be summarized as follows. First, from the perspective of returns, a high linkage is observed in the short-term between the commodity and maritime freight markets, with the metal commodities market playing a particularly significant role in information transmission effect of return series. Second, in terms of volatility, the total connectedness increases from the short- to the long-term, with substantial long-term risk transmission effects observed especially in the BDI, BDTI, agricultural, and energy commodity markets. Notably, during major global events such as the U.S.-China trade war, COVID-19, and the Russia-Ukraine conflicts, a marked increase in the risk transmission effect in the energy commodities market was identified.

본 연구는 상품시장과 해상운임시장 간의 수익률 및 변동성 전이효과를 다양한 주파수 영역(단기, 중기, 장기)에서 분석하였다. 본 연구의 주요 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 수익률 관점에서는 단기적으로 상품시장과 해상운임시장 간에 높은 연계성이 나타나며, 금속 상품시장은 특히 이러한 정보전이효과에서 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 변동성 관점에서는 총 연계성이 단기에서 장기로 갈수록 증가하는 것이 관찰되며, 특히 BDI, BDTI, 농산물 및 에너지 상품 시장에서의 장기 위험 전이효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 주요 글로벌 사건 예를 들어 미·중 무역전쟁, COVID-19, 러시아-우크라이나 전쟁 기간에 에너지 상품시장의 위험 전이효과가 급격히 증가하는 것이 확인되었다.
