Abstract For large multivariate models of generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH), it is important to reduce the number parameters cope with ‘curse dimensionality’. Recently, Laurent, Rombouts and Violante (2014 “Multivariate Rotated ARCH Models” Journal Econometrics 179 : 16–30) developed rotated GARCH model, which focuses on for standardized variables. This paper ext...

This paper introduces the scalar DCC-HEAVY and DECO-HEAVY models for conditional variances correlations of daily returns based on measures realized built from intraday data. Formulas multi-step forecasts are provided. Asymmetric versions developed. An empirical study shows that in terms HEAVY outperform BEKK-HEAVY model covariances BEKK, DCC, DECO multivariate GARCH exclusively

â â â  â â â â â  the main purpose of present study is to analyze the relationship between stock and exchange markets in two asian countries, iran and south korea. a monthly time series of stock price and exchange rate are used over the period 2002: 05 - 2012: 03. the data is collected from the central bank of each country and wdi. the calculated stock return and real exchange rate change are u...

The paper develops two Dynamic Conditional Correlation (DCC) models, namely the Wishart DCC (WDCC) model and the Matrix-Exponential Conditional Correlation (MECC) model. The paper applies the WDCC approach to the exponential GARCH (EGARCH) and GJR models to propose asymmetric DCC models. We use the standardized multivariate t-distribution to accommodate heavy-tailed errors. The paper presents a...

This paper investigates the forecasting ability of five different versions of GARCH models. The five GARCH models applied are bivariate GARCH, GARCH-ECM, BEKK GARCH, GARCH-X and GARCH-GJR. Forecast errors based on four emerging stock futures portfolio return (based on forecasted hedge ratio) forecasts are employed to evaluate out-ofsample forecasting ability of the five GARCH models. Daily data...

This paper investigates the hedging effectiveness of time-varying hedge ratios in the agricultural commodities futures markets based on four different versions of the GARCH models. The GARCH models applied are the standard bivariate GARCH, the bivariate BEKK GARCH, the bivariate GARCH-X and the bivariate BEKK GARCH-X. The GARCH-X and the BEKK GARCH-X models are uniquely different from the other...

This paper was aimed at investigating the volatility and conditional relationship among inflation rates, exchange rates and interest rates as well as to construct a model using multivariate GARCH DCC and BEKK models using Ghana data from January 1990 to December 2013. The study revealed that the cumulative depreciation of the cedi to the US dollar from 1990 to 2013 is 7,010.2% and the yearly we...
