Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue aims to publish high-quality research papers in the field of systemic risk, analyzing the asymmetric nature of shocks in the economy and their implications on the financial system. Further, this Issue investigates the network structure among business cycles and financial asset classes. This Special Issue focuses on the following issues:

  1. Innovative applications on information theory;
  2. Network theory and application in economics and finance;
  3. Risk measures and network connectedness in energy markets such as oil and gas companies, renewables, and electricity markets;
  4. Entropy based on modelling on risk measures such as stocks, currency, bond, commodities, fintech, and green investments;
  5. Measuring systemic and systematic risk in the financial markets.

Entropy, Risk Network, and Information Theory is the Special Issue of Entropy of the 3rd Emerging Topics in Financial Economics, March 12-13, 2020, organized by the Economics Division of the Department of Management and Engineering at the Linköping University, Sweden. Authors are invited to submit their full papers in PDF files no later than 15 February 2020 by e-mail. E-mail: [email protected]

The Covid-19 pandemic has brought about a heavy impact on the world economy, which arouses growing concerns about potential systemic risk, taking place in countries and regions. At this critical moment, it makes sense to interpret the systemic risk from the perspective of the financial crisis framework. By combing the latest research on systemic risks, we may arrive at some precautions relating to the current events. This literature review verifies the origin of systemic risk research. By comparing the retrieved and screened systemic literature with the relevant research on the financial crisis, more focus on the micro-foundations of systemic risk has been discovered. Besides, the measurement methods of systemic risks and the introduction of interdisciplinary methods have made the research in this field particularly active. This paper synthesizes the previous research conclusions to find the appropriate definition of systemic risk and combs the research literature of systemic risk from two lines: Firstly, conducting the division according to the sub-branch fields within the financial discipline and the relevant interdisciplinary research methods, which is helpful for scholars within and outside the discipline to have a more systematic understanding of the research in this field. Secondly predicting the research direction that can be expanded in this field. Full article
