Abstract

This paper empirically captures the interrelationships between the stock markets and interest rates for a set of Asian markets by means of a new technique called co-dependence. It uses a set of data for three countries in Asia - India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, over a time period spanning from 1985 to 2003.
