This study examines the volatility dynamics in the stock and forex markets. We first use a BEKK-GARCH model to estimate the international information transmission between the stock market indices and the currency prices of two of the G-7 countries (Canada and the United Kingdom). Afterwards, we proceed to the calculation of the volatility impulse response functions based on historical shocks. This methodology allows us to explore the interdependencies between national stock markets and exchange rates.
