Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new clustering procedure for financial instruments. Unlike the prevalent clustering procedures based on time series analysis, our procedure employs the jump tail dependence coefficient as the dissimilarity measure, assuming that the observed logarithm of the prices/indices of the financial instruments are embedded into multidimensional Lévy processes. The efficiency of our proposed clustering procedure is tested by a simulation study. Finally, with the help of the real data of country indices we illustrate that our clustering procedure could help investors avoid potential huge losses when constructing portfolios.
