利用混频数据的高维 Copula 资产收益分布模型AI 解读

This paper proposes a new model for high-dimensional distributions of asset returns that utilizes mixed frequency data and copulas. The dependence between returns is decomposed into linear and nonlinear components, enabling the use of high frequency data to accurately forecast linear dependence, and a new class of copulas designed to capture nonlinear dependence among the resulting uncorrelated, low frequency, residuals. Estimation of the new class of copulas is conducted…

通过非参数滤波估计随机波动率模型AI 解读

A two-step estimation method of stochastic volatility models is proposed: In the first step, we nonparametrically estimate the (unobserved) instantaneous volatility process. In the second step, standard estimation methods for fully observed diffusion processes are employed, but with the filtered/estimated volatility process replacing the latent process. Our estimation strategy is applicable to both parametric and nonparametric stochastic volatility models, and can handle…

半参数 GARCH 模型的样条估计AI 解读

The semiparametric GARCH (Generalized AutoRegressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity) model of Yang (2006, Journal of Econometrics 130, 365–384) has combined the flexibility of a nonparametric link function with the dependence on infinitely many past observations of the classic GARCH model. We propose a cubic spline procedure to estimate the unknown quantities in the semiparametric GARCH model that is intuitively appealing due to its simplicity. The theoretical properties of…

死亡率灾难的风险AI 解读

We develop a continuous-time model for analyzing and valuing catastrophe mortality contingent claims based on stochastic modeling of the force of mortality. We derive parameter estimates from a 105-year time series of U.S. population mortality data using a simulated maximum likelihood approach based on a particle filter. Relying on the resulting parameters, we calculate loss profiles for a representative catastrophe mortality transaction and compare them to the “official”…

交叉分位相关图：分位依赖与方向预测性检验AI 解读

This paper proposes the cross-quantilogram to measure the quantile dependence between two time series. We apply it to test the hypothesis that one time series has no directional predictability to another time series. We establish the asymptotic distribution of the cross-quantilogram and the corresponding test statistic. The limiting distributions depend on nuisance parameters. To construct consistent confidence intervals we employ a stationary bootstrap procedure; we…

持续且内生的微观结构效应与采样时长下证券协变矩阵的偏差校正AI 解读

I propose a bias-corrected non-parametric estimator of the covariation matrix of log security prices, designed as a convex combination of two realized kernels. The estimator is simple but possesses desirable statistical properties including consistency, asymptotic normality and the parametric rate of convergence in the presence of persistent, diurnally heteroskedastic and endogenous microstructure effects. It is robust to the asynchronous trading of multiple securities with…

含依赖及共同协变量的风险率函数核估计AI 解读

We propose a hazard model where dependence between events is achieved by assuming dependence between covariates. This model allows for correlated variables specific to observations as well as macro variables which all observations share. This setup better fits many economic and financial applications where events are not independent. Nonparametric estimation of the hazard function is then studied. Kernel estimators proposed in Nielsen and Linton (1995) and Linton et al.…

波动率函数依赖关系的推断理论AI 解读

We develop inference theory for models involving possibly nonlinear transforms of the elements of the spot covariance matrix of a multivariate continuous-time process observed at high frequency. The framework can be used to study the relationship among the elements of the latent spot covariance matrix and processes defined on the basis of it such as systematic and idiosyncratic variances, factor betas and correlations on a fixed interval of time. The estimation is based on…

方差风险有两种价格吗？来自股票与期权市场的证据AI 解读

We formally compare two versions of the market variance risk premium (VRP) measured in the equity and option markets. Both VRPs follow common patterns and respond similarly to changes in volatility and economic conditions. However, we reject the null hypothesis that they are identical and find that their difference is strongly related to measures of the financial standing of intermediaries. These results shed new light on the information content of the VRP, suggest the…

多元波动率模型的逐方程估计AI 解读

Summary The paper investigates the estimation of a wide class of multivariate volatility models. Instead of estimating an m-multivariate volatility model, a much simpler and numerically efficient method consists in estimating m univariate generalized auto-regressive conditional heteroscedasticity type models equation by equation in the first step, and a correlation matrix in the second step. Strong consistency and asymptotic normality of the equation-by-equation estimator…

混合单整与温和爆炸性回归变量下的稳健计量推断AI 解读

This paper explores in several prototypical models a convenient inference procedure for nonstationary variable regression that enables robust chi-square testing for a wide class of persistent and endogenous regressors. The approach uses the mechanism of self-generated instruments called IVX instrumentation developed by Magdalinos and Phillips (2009b). We first show that these methods remain valid for regressors with local unit roots in the explosive direction and mildly…

TENET：尾部事件驱动的网络风险AI 解读

CoVaR is a measure for systemic risk of the networked financial system conditional on institutions being under distress. The analysis of systemic risk is the focus of recent econometric analyses and uses tail event and network based techniques. Here, in this paper we bring tail event and network dynamics together into one context. In order to pursue such joint efforts, we propose a semiparametric measure to estimate systemic interconnectedness across financial institutions…

GARCH 模型中平滑结构变化的检测AI 解读

Detecting and modeling structural changes in GARCH processes have attracted increasing attention in time series econometrics. In this paper, we propose a new approach to testing structural changes in GARCH models. The idea is to compare the log likelihood of a time-varying parameter GARCH model with that of a constant parameter GARCH model, where the time-varying GARCH parameters are estimated by a local quasi-maximum likelihood estimator (QMLE) and the constant GARCH…

非同步、微观结构噪声与跳跃并存时的积分协方差估计AI 解读

We propose a new estimator for the integrated covariance of two Itô semimartingales observed at a high frequency. This new estimator, which we call the pre-averaged truncated Hayashi–Yoshida estimator, enables us to separate the sum of the co-jumps from the total quadratic covariation even in the case that the sampling schemes of two processes are nonsynchronous and the observation data are polluted by some noise. We also show the asymptotic mixed normality of this estimator…

欧洲央行货币政策意外：通过利率共同跳跃识别AI 解读

This paper proposes a new econometric approach to disentangle two distinct response patterns of the yield curve to monetary policy announcements. Based on cojumps in intraday tick data of short- and long-term interest rate futures, we develop a day-wise test that detects the occurrence of a significant policy surprise and identifies the market perceived source of the surprise. The new test is applied to 133 policy announcements of the European Central Bank (ECB) in the…

预测回归中的模型平均AI 解读

In this paper, we consider forecast combination in a predictive regression. We construct the point forecast by combining predictions from all possible linear regression models, given a set of potentially relevant predictors. We derive the asymptotic risk of least‐squares averaging estimators in a local asymptotic framework. We then develop a frequentist model averaging criterion, an asymptotically unbiased estimator of the asymptotic risk, to select forecast weights. Monte…

股票收益可预测性的再考察AI 解读

We provide a simple and innovative approach to test for predictability in stock returns. Our approach consists of two methodologies, time change and instrumental variable estimation, which are employed respectively to deal effectively with persistent stochastic volatility in stock returns and endogenous nonstationarity in their predictors. These are prominent characteristics of the data used in predictive regressions, which are known to have a substantial impact on the test…

持续协变量下的预测分位数回归：IVX-QR 方法AI 解读

This paper develops econometric methods for inference and prediction in quantile regression (QR) allowing for persistent predictors. Conventional QR econometric techniques lose their validity when predictors are highly persistent. I adopt and extend a methodology called IVX filtering (Magdalinos and Phillips, 2009) that is designed to handle predictor variables with various degrees of persistence. The proposed IVX-QR methods correct the distortion arising from persistent…

GARCH 模型中具有根 T 收敛率的密度估计AI 解读

We consider a new nonparametric estimator of the stationary density of the logarithm of the volatility of the GARCH(1,1) model. This problem is particularly challenging since this density is still unknown, even in cases where the model parameters are given. Although the volatility variables are only observed with multiplicative independent innovation errors with unknown density, we manage to construct a nonparametric procedure which estimates the log volatility density…

已实现协方差矩阵的贝叶斯半参数建模AI 解读

This paper introduces several new Bayesian nonparametric models suitable for capturing the unknown conditional distribution of realized covariance (RCOV) matrices. Existing dynamic Wishart models are extended to countably infinite mixture models of Wishart and inverse-Wishart distributions. In addition to mixture models with constant weights we propose models with time-varying weights to capture time dependence in the unknown distribution. Each of our models can be combined…

利用测量误差改进波动率预测的简便方法AI 解读

We propose a new family of easy-to-implement realized volatility based forecasting models. The models exploit the asymptotic theory for high-frequency realized volatility estimation to improve the accuracy of the forecasts. By allowing the parameters of the models to vary explicitly with the (estimated) degree of measurement error, the models exhibit stronger persistence, and in turn generate more responsive forecasts, when the measurement error is relatively low.…

使用已实现波动率指标的指数 GARCH 建模AI 解读

We introduce the realized exponential GARCH model that can use multiple realized volatility measures for the modeling of a return series. The model specifies the dynamic properties of both returns and realized measures, and is characterized by a flexible modeling of the dependence between returns and volatility. We apply the model to 27 stocks and an exchange traded fund that tracks the S&P 500 index and find specifications with multiple realized measures that dominate those…

金融收益条件相关性对市场波动率的依赖建模AI 解读

Several models have been developed to capture the dynamics of the conditional correlations between time series of financial returns and several studies have shown that the market volatility is a major determinant of the correlations. We extend some models to include explicitly the dependence of the correlations on the market volatility. The models differ by the way—linear or nonlinear, direct or indirect—in which the volatility influences the correlations. Using a wide set…

分布 Granger 因果关系的非参数检验及其金融传染应用AI 解读

This article introduces a kernel-based nonparametric inferential procedure to test for Granger causality in distribution. This test is a multivariate extension of the kernel-based Granger causality test in tail event. The main advantage of this test is its ability to examine a large number of lags, with higher-order lags discounted. In addition, our test is highly flexible because it can be used to identify Granger causality in specific regions on the distribution supports,…
