This article examines the upside and downside risk spillover effects among crude oil (WTI and Brent) and Henry Hub natural gas markets. We consider value-at-risk (VaR) as a measure of risk and model both upside and downside 95 per cent, 99 per cent and 99.5 per cent VaR using various VaR approaches. The VaR models are evaluated using Christoffersen’s (1998) conditional coverage test and Lopez’s loss function approach to select the best-performing VaR model. Finally, we apply Hong, Liu and Wang’s (2009) approach to examine the upside and the downside risk spillover among crude oil and Henry Hub natural gas markets. We find significant two-way as well as one-way upside and downside risk spillover between WTI and Brent crude oil. Our results provide weak evidence of upside risk spillover from natural gas market to crude oil markets for 99.5 per cent VaR.
