Quasi-Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Long-Memory Stochastic Volatility Models*
نویسندگان
چکیده
We analyze finite sample properties of the quasi-maximum likelihood estimators of longmemory stochastic volatility models. The estimates are done in the time domain using autoregressive and moving average in the state space representation. The results are compared with usual estimators of the long-memory parameter.

Indirect Estimation of Long Memory Volatility Models
An indirect estimator is proposed for two long memory volatility models; the fractionally integrated generalised autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (FIGARCH) model and the long memory stochastic volatility (LMSV) model. The small sample properties of the indirect estimator are compared to the small sample properties of conventional maximum likelihood estimators. It is found that the ...
متن کاملPricing Derivatives Securities with Prior Information on Long- Memory Volatility
This paper investigates the existence of long memory in the volatility of the Mexican stock market. We use a stochastic volatility (SV) model to derive statistical test for changes in volatility. In this case, estimation is carried out through the Kalman filter (KF) and the improved quasi-maximum likelihood (IQML). We also test for both persistence and long memory by using a long-memory stochas...
متن کاملMultivariate Stochastic Volatility: a Review
The literature on multivariate stochastic volatility (MSV) models has developed significantly over the last few years. This paper reviews the substantial literature on specification, estimation, and evaluation of MSV models. A wide range of MSV models is presented according to various categories, namely, (i) asymmetric models, (ii) factor models, (iii) time-varying correlation models, and (iv) ...
متن کاملBayesian range-based estimation of stochastic volatility models
Alizadeh, Brandt, and Diebold [2002. Journal of Finance 57, 1047–1091] propose estimating stochastic volatility models by quasi-maximum likelihood using data on the daily range of the log asset price process. We suggest a related Bayesian procedure that delivers exact likelihood based inferences. Our approach also incorporates data on the daily return and accommodates a nonzero drift. We illust...
متن کاملQuasi-Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Multivariate Diffusions
This paper introduces quasi-maximum likelihood estimator for multivariate diffusions based on discrete observations. A numerical solution to the stochastic differential equation is obtained by higher order Wagner-Platen approximation and it is used to derive the first two conditional moments. Monte Carlo simulation shows that the proposed method has good finite sample property for both normal a...
