Abstract
This paper proposes different methods to consistently detect multiple breaks in copula-based dependence measures, mainly focusing on Spearman's . The leading model is a factor copula model due to its usefulness for analyzing data in high dimensions. Starting with the classical binary segmentation, also the more recent wild binary segmentation (WBS) and a procedure based on an information criterion are considered. For all procedures, consistency of the estimators for the location of the breakpoints as well as the number of breaks is proved. Monte Carlo simulations indicate that WBS performs best in many, but not in all, situations. A real data application on recent Euro Stoxx 50 data reveals the usefulness of the procedures.
