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 ...

In this paper the class of BL-GARCH (Bilinear General AutoregRessive Conditional Heteroskedasticity) models is introduced. The proposed model is a modification to the BL-GARCH model proposed by Storti and Vitale (2003). Stationary conditions and autocorrelation structure for special cases of these new models are derived. Maximum likelihood estimation of the model is also considered. Some simula...

Since their introduction by Engle (1982) and Bollerslev (1986), respectively, autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic (ARCH) and generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic (GARCH) models have found extraordinarily wide use. The survey article by Bollerslev, Chou, and Kroner (1982) cited more than 300 papers applying ARCH, GARCH, and other closely related models. As they showed, A...

INTRODUCTION Box Jenkins’ linear autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) methodology is widely used for analyzing time-series data. Beyond ‘linear’ domain, there are many nonlinear forms to be explored. In fact, nonlinear time-series analysis has been one of the major areas of research in Time-series analysis for more than two decades now. These models are generally more appropriate th...

Spatial heteroskedasticity may arise jointly with spatial autocorrelation in lattice data collected from agricultural trials and environmental studies. This leads to spatial clustering not only in the level but also in the variation of the data, the latter of which may be very important, for example, in constructing prediction intervals. This article introduces a spatial stochastic volatility (...

Developing countries have persistently witnessed volatile exchange. Such volatility triggered instability in their exchange rates which induced colossal fluctuations currency leading to uncertainty for both the consumers and firms. All these instigated changes official that are harmful underlie trade patterns countries. This study estimated daily rate returns of ten African using generalized au...
