具有状态依赖性的预测表现评估AI 解读

We propose a novel forecast evaluation methodology to assess models’ absolute and relative forecasting performance when it is a state-dependent function of economic variables. In our framework, the forecasting performance, measured by a forecast error loss function, is modeled via a hard or smooth threshold model with unknown threshold values. Existing tests either assume a constant out-of-sample forecast performance or use non-parametric techniques robust to time-variation;…

含外生回归量的 Beta 观测驱动模型：已实现相关性与杠杆效应AI 解读

We consider a general class of observation-driven models with exogenous regressors for double bounded data that are based on the beta distribution. We obtain a stationary and ergodic beta observation-driven process subject to a contraction condition on the stochastic dynamic model equation. We derive conditions for strong consistency and asymptotic normality of the maximum likelihood estimator. The general results are used to study the properties of a beta autoregressive…

动态条件特征值 GARCHAI 解读

In this paper we introduce a multivariate generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedastic (GARCH) class of models with time-varying conditional eigenvalues. The dynamics of the eigenvalues is derived for the cases with nderlying Gaussian and Student’s t-distributed innovations based on the general theory of dynamic conditional score models by Creal, Koopman and Lucas (2013) and Harvey (2013). The resulting time-varying eigenvalue GARCH models – labeled ‘λ-GARCH’…

观测驱动时间序列条件均值的两阶段加权最小二乘估计AI 解读

General parametric forms are assumed for the conditional mean λt(θ0) and variance υt of a time series. These conditional moments can for instance be derived from count time series, Autoregressive Conditional Duration or Generalized Autoregressive Score models. In this paper, our aim is to estimate the conditional mean parameter θ0, trying to be as agnostic as possible about the conditional distribution of the observations. Quasi-Maximum Likelihood Estimators (QMLEs) based on…

对数相关矩阵的动态条件得分模型AI 解读

This paper proposes a new model for the dynamics of correlation matrices, where the dynamics are driven by the likelihood score with respect to the matrix logarithm of the correlation matrix. In analogy to the exponential GARCH model for volatility, this transformation ensures that the correlation matrices remain positive definite, even in high dimensions. For the conditional distribution of returns, we assume a student-t copula to explain the dependence structure and…

存在局部极端收益持续性时的波动率测量AI 解读

Increasing evidence points towards the episodic emergence of pockets with extreme return persistence. This notion refers to intraday periods of non-trivial duration, for which stock returns are highly positively autocorrelated. Such episodes include, but are not limited to, gradual jumps and prolonged bursts in the drift component. In this paper, we develop a family of integrated volatility estimators, labeled differenced-return volatility (DV) estimators, which provide…

内生增长与收益可预测性AI 解读

The component of the volatility of total factor productivity (TFP) that is orthogonal to the dividend price ratio is shown to have long-run predictive ability for excess market returns. This finding implies that TFP volatility should also predict real cash flows and/or real interest rates: it is found to mainly predict real cash flows through inflation. A model with endogenous growth, Epstein-Zin preferences and price rigidities reconciles both TFP volatility-driven long-run…

跳跃杠杆风险溢价AI 解读

Jumps in asset prices are ubiquitous, yet the apparent high price of jump risk observed empirically is commonly viewed as puzzling. We develop new model-free short-time risk-neutral variance expansions, allowing us to clearly delineate the importance of jumps in generating both price and variance risks. We find that simultaneous jumps in the price and the stochastic volatility and/or jump intensity of the market commands a sizeable risk premium. The existence of “jump…

基于高频金融数据的大型波动率矩阵自适应稳健估计AI 解读

Several novel statistical methods have been developed to estimate large integrated volatility matrices based on high-frequency financial data. To investigate their asymptotic behaviors, they require a sub-Gaussian or finite high-order moment assumption for observed log-returns, which cannot account for the heavy-tail phenomenon of stock-returns. Recently, a robust estimator was developed to handle heavy-tailed distributions with some bounded fourth-moment assumption.…

广义指数加权移动平均分位数模型及其统计推断AI 解读

The exponentially weighting scheme is a simple and pragmatic approach to compute the value at risk (VaR). However, the existing exponentially weighting methods lack a sound statistical inference procedure. To circumvent this deficiency, this paper proposes a new generalized exponentially weighted moving average (GEWMA) quantile model, which allows a much broader weighting scheme than the benchmark one used in “Risk Metrics” document. For the GEWMA quantile model, a…

识别间歇性的收益可预测性AI 解读

Return predictability has been one of the central research questions in finance for many decades. This paper proposes a predictive regression with multiple structural changes to capture the sporadic predictive ability of potential predictors for the return series. An adaptive group Lasso procedure, augmented with a forward regression for break screening, is adopted to efficiently and consistently identify the structural breaks in the predictive regression, with predictors…

企业违约概率：单指标风险率模型方法AI 解读

Corporate probability of default (PD) prediction is vitally important for risk management and asset pricing. In search of accurate PD prediction, we propose a flexible yet easy-to-interpret default-prediction single-index hazard model (DSI). By applying it to a comprehensive U.S. corporate bankruptcy database we constructed, we discover an interesting V-shaped relationship, indicating a violation of the common linear hazard specification. Most importantly, the single-index…

基于极端依赖的时间序列模型设定检验AI 解读

We propose a specification test for conditional location–scale models based on extremal dependence properties of the standardized residuals. We do so comparing the left-over serial extremal dependence—as measured by the pre-asymptotic tail copula—with that arising under serial independence at different lags. Our main theoretical results show that the proposed Portmanteau-type test statistics have nuisance parameter-free asymptotic limits. The test statistics are easy to…

使用广义熵估计量的非参数期权定价AI 解读

We propose a family of nonparametric estimators for an option price that require only the use of underlying return data, but can also easily incorporate information from observed option prices. Each estimator comes from a risk-neutral measure minimizing generalized entropy according to a different Cressie–Read discrepancy. We apply our method to price S&P 500 options and the cross-section of individual equity options, using distinct amounts of option data in the estimation.…

隔夜 GARCH–Itô 波动率模型AI 解读

Various parametric volatility models for financial data have been developed to incorporate high-frequency realized volatilities and better capture market dynamics. However, because high-frequency trading data are not available during the close-to-open period, the volatility models often ignore volatility information over the close-to-open period and thus may suffer from loss of important information relevant to market dynamics. In this article, to account for whole-day…

利用高频数据估计混合分数稳定过程AI 解读

The linear fractional stable motion generalizes two prominent classes of stochastic processes, namely stable Lévy processes, and fractional Brownian motion. For this reason, it may be regarded as a basic building block for continuous time models. We study a stylized model consisting of a superposition of independent linear fractional stable motions and our focus is on parameter estimation of the model. Applying an estimating equations approach, we construct estimators for…

依赖重尾数据的极端回归推断AI 解读

Nonparametric inference on tail conditional quantiles and their least squares analogs, expectiles, remains limited to i.i.d. data. We develop a fully operational inferential theory for extreme conditional quantiles and expectiles in the challenging framework of α-mixing, conditional heavy-tailed data whose tail index may vary with covariate values. This requires a dedicated treatment to deal with data sparsity in the far tail of the response, in addition to handling…

马尔可夫转换 VAR 模型中的矩、冲击与溢出AI 解读

To investigate how economies, financial markets or institutions can deal with stress, we often analyze the effects of shocks conditional on being in a recession or a bear market. MSVAR models are perfectly suited for such analyses because they combine gradual movements with sudden regime switches. In this paper, we develop a comprehensive methodology to conduct these analyses. We derive first and second moments conditional only on the regime distribution and propose impulse…

用机器学习识别共同基金经理的技能AI 解读

We show, using machine learning, that fund characteristics can consistently differentiate high from low-performing mutual funds, before and after fees. The outperformance persists for more than three years. Fund momentum and fund flow are the most important predictors of future risk-adjusted fund performance, while characteristics of the stocks that funds hold are not predictive. Returns of predictive long-short portfolios are higher following a period of high sentiment. Our…

条件风险价值与条件预期损失的同时置信带AI 解读

Conditional value-at-risk (CVaR) and conditional expected shortfall (CES) are widely adopted risk measures which help monitor potential tail risk while adapting to evolving market information. In this paper, we propose an approach to constructing simultaneous confidence bands (SCBs) for tail risk as measured by CVaR and CES, with the confidence bands uniformly valid for a set of tail levels. We consider one-sided tail risk (downside or upside tail risk) as well as relative…

高频事件高维计数过程的无惩罚估计AI 解读

This paper introduces a counting process for event arrivals in high-frequency trading, based on high-dimensional covariates. The novelty is that, under sparsity conditions on the true model, we do not need to impose any model penalty or parameters shrinkage, unlike Lasso. The procedure allows us to derive a central limit theorem to test restrictions in a two-stage estimator. We achieve this by the use of a sign constraint on the intensity which necessarily needs to be…

一般条件异方差与得分驱动时间序列模型的局部渐近正态性AI 解读

The paper establishes the local asymptotic normality property for general conditionally heteroskedastic time series models of multiplicative form, $\epsilon _t=\sigma _t(\boldsymbol {\theta }_0)\eta _t$ , where the volatility $\sigma _t(\boldsymbol {\theta }_0)$ is a parametric function of $\{\epsilon _{s}, s< t\}$ , and $(\eta _t)$ is a sequence of i.i.d. random variables with common density $f_{\boldsymbol {\theta }_0}$ . In contrast with earlier results, the finite…

分位数自回归条件异方差模型AI 解读

Abstract This article proposes a novel conditional heteroscedastic time series model by applying the framework of quantile regression processes to the ARCH(∞) form of the GARCH model. This model can provide varying structures for conditional quantiles of the time series across different quantile levels, while including the commonly used GARCH model as a special case. The strict stationarity of the model is discussed. For robustness against heavy-tailed distributions, a…

多协变量预期短缺回归的稳健估计与推断AI 解读

Abstract Expected shortfall (ES), also known as superquantile or conditional value-at-risk, is an important measure in risk analysis and stochastic optimisation and has applications beyond these fields. In finance, it refers to the conditional expected return of an asset given that the return is below some quantile of its distribution. In this paper, we consider a joint regression framework recently proposed to model the quantile and ES of a response variable simultaneously,…
