Abstract

Open economic system has not only provided ease for every country to interact with each other, but also make it easier to transmitted the crisis. Financial crisis that hit Indonesia in 1997-1998 and 2008 severely impacted the economy, thus a method to detect crisis is required. According to Kamisky et al. [6], crisis can be detected based on several financial indicators such as real output, domestic credit per Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and Indonesia Composite Index (ICI). This research aims to determine the appropriate combination of volatility and Markov switching model to detect financial crisis in Indonesia based on the indicators. Volatility model used for modeling the unconstant-variance of ARMA. Markov switching is an alternative model of time series data with changed conditions in the data, or called state. In this research, we are using three assumption of states namely low volatility state, medium volatility state and high volatility state. The data of each indicator were taken from 1990 until 2016. The result of the study show that MS-ARCH(3,1) can be used to detect the financial crisis that hit Indonesia in 1997-1998 and 2008 based on real output, domestic credit per GDP, and ICI indicators.
