Generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) dynamic conditional correlation analysis indicates that gold serves as an effective hedge against systemic risk. Gold also provides a safe haven in times of extreme market volatility and during periods of financial crises in most countries.TOPICS: Commodities, global, statistical methods, financial crises and financial market history ER -
