Summary/Abstract: As for now there is no generally accepted definition of contagion on the financial markets, but for the purpose of this paper one can define contagion as a significantly greater dependency between price movements on different financial markets in time of crisis. To better understand this phenomenon this article presents a method for defining and investigating contagion between two financial markets X and Y by using the information about their dependence. There is also presented empirical research which utilizes this method.
