This method allows us to elucidate the complex and dynamic dependence between forex markets. By analyzing 39 currencies that are actively traded on the forex market during the period 2005-2009, our empirical study shows that the DMC-EVT model outperforms the alternative copula models. Furthermore, we confirm the existence of financial contagion in the forex market during the 2007-2009 global financial crisis, and find that wealth constraints are the contagion channel during the crisis. Our results provide important insights on portfolio and risk management. 收起
