Abstract
ABSTRACT This study examines the connectedness among several regional FinTech indices and analyses the impact of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on the dynamic spillovers. We employ the time-varying parameter vector autoregression and time-frequency connectedness network approach using data spanning from 2 September 2021 until 4 April 2022. We find that the returns and volatility spillovers among FinTech indices burst with the outbreak of the invasion. During this invasion, Asia-Pacific and Japan FinTech appeared to be the largest recipients of the spillovers. In contrast, Europe and North America FinTech appeared to be the largest transmitters of spillovers. The short-term effect among regional FinTech indices is stronger than the long-term relationship.
