Abstract

In this paper, the dynamic CoVaR method is used to measure changes in systemic risk in the financial industry during the COVID-19 pandemic. We find that, first, after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the systemic risk of the financial industry increased significantly. Second, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the systemic risk of the securities industry was greater than that of the banking and insurance industries.
