Distributional theory for Quasi-Maximum Likelihood estimators in long memory conditional heteroskedastic models is not formally defined, even asympotically. Because of that, this paper analyses the performance of the Likelihood Ratio and the Lagrange Multiplier misspecification tests for Periodic Long Memory GARCH models. The real size and power of these tests are studied by means of Monte Carl...

Identification is the most important stage of all stages modeling process. This research identifies a suitable order for two different time series models ARIMA and GARCH. For GARCH distributions that GARCH-STD GARCH-GED with sample sizes in fitting forecasting stationary non-stationary data structures was considered. The study recommends use smallest information criterion like AIC BIC to select...

Traditional GARCH models fail to explain at least two of the stylized facts found in financial series: the asymmetry of the distribution of errors and the leverage effect. The leverage effect stems from the fact that losses have a greater influence on future volatilities than do gains. Asymmetry means that the distribution of losses has a heavier tail than the distribution of gains. We test whe...

While ARCH/GARCH equations have been widely used to model financial market data, formal explanations for the sources of conditional volatility are scarce. This paper presents a model with the property that standard econometric tests detect ARCH/GARCH effects similar to those found in asset returns. We use evolutionary game theory to describe how agents endogenously switch among different foreca...

It is a well-known fact that financial returns exhibit conditional heteroscedasticity and fat tails. While the GARCH-type models are very popular in depicting the conditional heteroscedasticity, the α-stable distribution is a natural candidate for the conditional distribution of financial returns. The α-stable distribution is a generalization of the normal distribution and is described by four ...

This note investigates impacts of multivariate generalised autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) errors on hypothesis testing for cointegrating vectors. The study reviews a cointegrated vector autoregressive model incorporating multivariate GARCH innovations and a regularity condition required for valid asymptotic inferences. Monte Carlo experiments are then conducted on a test ...

In this paper we test for (Generalized) AutoRegressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity [(G)ARCH] in daily data on 22 exchange rates and 13 stock market indices using the standard Lagrange Multiplier [LM] test for GARCH and a LM test that is resistant to patches of additive outliers. The data span two samples of 5 years ranging from 1986 to 1995. Using asymptotic arguments and Monte Carlo simulat...

In this paper, we quantify market risk at an intraday time horizon using normal GARCH, Student GARCH, RiskMetrics and high-frequency duration (Log-ACD) models set in the framework of the conditional VaR methodology. Because of the small time horizon of the intraday returns (15 and 30 minute returns in this paper), an evaluation of intraday market risk can be useful to market participants (trade...

Discrete-time stochastic volatility (SV) models have generated a considerable literature in financial econometrics. However, carrying out inference for these models is a difficult task and often relies on carefully customized Markov chain Monte Carlo techniques. Our contribution here is twofold. First, we propose a new SV model, namely SV–GARCH, which bridges the gap between SV and GARCH models...

This paper investigates the dynamic tail dependence risk between BRICS economies and world energy market, in context of COVID-19 financial crisis 2020, order to determine optimal investment decisions based on metrics. For this purpose, we employ a combination novel statistical techniques, including Vector Autoregressive (VAR), Markov-switching GJR-GARCH, vine copula methods. Using data set cons...
