Integrated variance estimation for assets traded in multiple venues
多交易场所资产的积分方差估计
In this paper, we show that the availability of multiple price series for the same asset can be exploited to estimate its integrated variance. We use a vector error correction model for those prices and its common trend representation to estimate the efficient price of the asset. Because the estimated efficient price satisfies the martingale property, we can then compute the sum of its squared intra-day returns to obtain an unbiased and efficient realized variance estimator.…
