| dc.description.abstract | This article analyses the impact of oil prices on bond risk premiums issued by emerging economies. No empirical study has yet focused on the effects of oil prices on government bond risk premiums. We develop a model of credit spread with data from the EMBIG index of 17 countries, from 1998 to 2008. An analysis in time series is carried out on each country and a panel analysis used to determine the global impact of oil prices on investors’ risk perceptions. We suggest a new estimator for oil prices to take into account the effect of the price variance, and show that oil prices influence the risk premiums of sovereign bonds along with the price volatility that increases the accuracy of the model. | en_US |
