Abstract

Conditional copula models allow the dependence structure among variables to vary with covariates, and thus can describe the evolution of the dependence structure with those factors. This paper proposes a conditional mixture copula which is a weighted average of several individual conditional copulas. We allow both the weights and copula parameters to vary with a covariate so that the conditional mixture copula offers additional flexibility and accuracy in describing the dependence structure. We propose a two-step semiparametric estimation method and develop asymptotic properties of the estimators. Moreover, we introduce model selection procedures to select the component copulas of the conditional mixture copula model. Simulation results suggest that the proposed procedures have a good performance in estimating and selecting conditional mixture copulas with different model specifications. The proposed model is then applied to investigate how the dependence structures among international equity markets evolve with the volatility in the exchange rate markets.
