- Abstract
This paper showed evidence of the effect of covid-19 on changes in the structure and time-varying pattern of bond yield spillover across the country through the government bond market in emerging East Asia. We used daily 10-year government bond yield for China, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Viet Nam. We employed the VAR-variance decomposition framework developed by Diebold-Yilmaz 2012, which performed both static and dynamic impact to quantify the spillover shock transmission from one country to another. The static Total Spillover Index in the Covid-19 period was higher than the entire sample period. Over 10-years, the spillover effects come from the own-stressed country. In contrast, spillover effects emanating from other countries have significant roles in the Covid-19 period. It indicated that domestic factors turn to regional factors that explained shock transmission across-country in the Covid-19 Era. The dynamic Total Spillover Index reached the highest point in the Covid-19 period. In particular, the first quarter of 2020 showed the peak point of spillover effect across the country. Hong Kong and Thailand showed their impact on the East Asia markets within 10-years and the covid-19 period. Our findings matter to regional government policies seeking to achieve financial stability.
