WEAK DIFFUSION LIMITS OF DYNAMIC CONDITIONAL CORRELATION MODELS
动态条件相关模型的弱扩散极限
The properties of dynamic conditional correlation (DCC) models, introduced more than a decade ago, are still not entirely known. This paper fills one of the gaps by deriving weak diffusion limits of a modified version of the classical DCC model. The limiting system of stochastic differential equations is characterized by a diffusion matrix of reduced rank. The degeneracy is due to perfect collinearity between the innovations of the volatility and correlation dynamics. For…
