条件风险价值与预期损失的非参数估计AI 解读

This paper considers a new nonparametric estimation of conditional value-at-risk and expected shortfall functions. Conditional value-at-risk is estimated by inverting the weighted double kernel local linear estimate of the conditional distribution function. The nonparametric estimator of conditional expected shortfall is constructed by a plugging-in method. Both the asymptotic normality and consistency of the proposed nonparametric estimators are established at both boundary…

基于最小体积集合与逆回归的多变量波动函数检验AI 解读

We propose two new types of nonparametric tests for investigating multivariate regression functions. The tests are based on cumulative sums coupled with either minimum volume sets or inverse regression ideas; involving no multivariate nonparametric regression estimation. The methods proposed facilitate the investigation for different features such as if a multivariate regression function is (i) constant, (ii)Â of a bathtub shape, and (iii) in a given parametric form. The…

离散化扩散模型的设定检验：理论与实践AI 解读

We propose two new tests for the specification of both the drift and the diffusion functions in a discretized version of a semiparametric continuous-time financial econometric model. Theoretically, we establish some asymptotic consistency results for the proposed tests. Practically, a simple selection procedure for the bandwidth parameter involved in each of the proposed tests is established based on the assessment of the power function of the test under study. To the best…

已实现波动率预测与期权定价AI 解读

A growing literature advocates the use of microstructure noise-contaminated high-frequency data for the purpose of volatility estimation. This paper evaluates and compares the quality of several recently-proposed estimators in the context of a relevant economic metric, i.e., profits from option pricing and trading. Using forecasts obtained by virtue of alternative volatility estimates, agents price short-term options on the S&P 500 index before trading with each other at…

含持久协变量的ARCH过程的时间序列性质AI 解读

We investigate the time series properties of a volatility model, whose conditional variance is specified as in ARCH with an additional persistent covariate. The included covariate is assumed to be an integrated or nearly integrated process, with its effect on volatility given by a wide class of nonlinear volatility functions. In the paper, such a model is shown to generate many important characteristics that are commonly observed in financial time series. In particular, the…

全球收益率曲线动态与互动：动态 Nelson–Siegel 方法AI 解读

The popular Nelson-Siegel [Nelson, C.R., Siegel, A.F., 1987. Parsimonious modeling of yield curves. Journal of Business 60, 473-489] yield curve is routinely fit to cross sections of intra-country bond yields, and Diebold-Li [Diebold, F.X., Li, C., 2006. Forecasting the term structure of government bond yields. Journal of Econometrics 130, 337-364] have recently proposed a dynamized version. In this paper we extend Diebold-Li to a global context, modeling a potentially large…

用于估计与分解违约风险的非高斯面板时间序列模型AI 解读

We model 1981–2005 quarterly default frequencies for a panel of U.S. firms in different rating and age classes from the Standard and Poor database. The data are decomposed into systematic and firm-specific risk components, where the systematic component reflects the general economic conditions and the default climate. We need to cope with: the shared exposure of each age cohort, industry, and rating class to the same systematic risk factor; strongly non-Gaussian features of…

GARCH 模型中 VaR 与 ES 估计的估计风险AI 解读

Value-at-risk (VaR) and expected shortfall (ES) are now both widely used risk measures. However, users have not paid much attention to the estimation risk issues, especially in the case of heteroskedastic financial time series. The key challenge arises from the fact that the estimated generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) innovations are not the true independent innovations. The purpose of this work is to provide an analytical method to assess the…

一类马尔可夫模型的遍历性、混合性与矩存在性AI 解读

This paper studies a class of Markov models that consist of two components. Typically, one of the components is observable and the other is unobservable or “hidden.” Conditions under which geometric ergodicity of the unobservable component is inherited by the joint process formed of the two components are given. This implies existence of initial values such that the joint process is strictly stationary and β-mixing. In addition to this, conditions for the existence of…

随机波动模型中的分数协整AI 解读

Asset returns are frequently assumed to be determined by one or more common factors. We consider a bivariate factor model where the unobservable common factor and idiosyncratic errors are stationary and serially uncorrelated but have strong dependence in higher moments. Stochastic volatility models for the latent variables are employed, in view of their direct application to asset pricing models. Assuming that the underlying persistence is higher in the factor than in the…

随机波动模型扩散系数的非参数估计AI 解读

In this paper, new fully nonparametric estimators of the diffusion coefficient of continuous time models are introduced. The estimators are based on Fourier analysis of the state variable trajectory observed and on the estimation of quadratic variation between observations by means of realized volatility. The estimators proposed are shown to be consistent and asymptotically normally distributed. Moreover, the Fourier estimator can be iterated to get a fully nonparametric…

利用条件不相关分量建模多元波动率AI 解读

Summary We propose to model multivariate volatility processes on the basis of the newly defined conditionally uncorrelated components (CUCs). This model represents a parsimonious representation for matrix-valued processes. It is flexible in the sense that each CUC may be fitted separately with any appropriate univariate volatility model. Computationally it splits one high dimensional optimization problem into several lower dimensional subproblems. Consistency for the…

随机波动率模型期权价格计算的高斯近似方案AI 解读

We consider European options on a price process that follows the log-linear stochastic volatility model. Two stochastic integrals in the option pricing formula are costly to compute. We derive a central limit theorem to approximate them. At parameter settings appropriate to foreign exchange data our formulas improve computation speed by a factor of 1000 over brute force Monte Carlo making MCMC statistical methods practicable. We provide estimates of model parameters from…

数据丰富环境下收益率曲线预测：无套利因子增强 VAR 方法AI 解读

This paper suggests a term structure model which parsimoniously exploits a broad macroeconomic information set. The model uses the short rate and the common components of a large number of macroeconomic variables as factors. Precisely, the dynamics of the short rate are modeled with a Factor-Augmented Vector Autoregression and the term structure is derived using parameter restrictions implied by no-arbitrage. The model has economic appeal and provides better out-of-sample…

大型条件异方差因子模型的间接估计：道琼斯30只股票应用AI 解读

We derive indirect estimators of conditionally heteroskedastic factor models in which the volatilities of common and idiosyncratic factors depend on their past unobserved values by calibrating the score of a Kalman-filter approximation with inequality constraints on the auxiliary model parameters. We also propose alternative indirect estimators for large-scale models, and explain how to apply our procedures to many other dynamic latent variable models. We analyse the small…

基于广义双曲分布的非参数风险管理AI 解读

In this article we propose the generalized hyperbolic adaptive volatility (GHADA) risk management model based on the generalized hyperbolic (GH) distribution and on a nonparametric adaptive methodology. Compared with the normal distribution, the GH distribution has semiheavy tails and represents the financial risk factors more appropriately. Nonparametric adaptive methodology has the desirable property of being able to estimate homogeneous volatility over a short time…

VEC 与 BEKK 多元 GARCH 模型的关系AI 解读

The question of which multivariate generalized autoregressive conditionally heteroskedastic (GARCH) models in the vec form are representable in the BEKK form is addressed. Using results from linear algebra, it is established that all vec models not representable in the simplest BEKK form contain matrices as parameters that map the vectorized positive semidefinite matrices into a strict subset of themselves. Moreover, a general result from linear algebra is presented implying…

横截面收益排名跳跃与预期收益：一个混合模型AI 解读

Abstract We propose a new nonlinear time series model of expected returns based on the dynamics of the cross‐sectional rank of realized returns. We model the joint dynamics of a sharp jump in the cross‐sectional rank and the asset return by analyzing (1) the marginal probability distribution of a jump in the cross‐sectional rank within the context of a duration model, and (2) the probability distribution of the asset return conditional on a jump, for which we specify…

离散采样 Lévy 过程的费舍尔信息AI 解读

This paper studies the asymptotic behavior of Fisher's information for a Lévy process discretely sampled at an increasing frequency. As a result, we derive the optimal rates of convergence of efficient estimators of the different parameters of the process and show that the rates are often nonstandard and differ across parameters. We also show that it is possible to distinguish the continuous part of the process from its jumps part, and even different types of jumps from one…

模仿组合、经济风险溢价与多贝塔模型检验AI 解读

We consider two formulations of the linear factor model (LFM) with nontraded factors. In the first formulation, LFM, risk premia and alphas are estimated by a cross-sectional regression of average returns on betas. In the second formulation, LFM*, the factors are replaced by their projections on the span of excess returns, and risk premia and alphas are estimated by time series regressions. We compare the two formulations and study the small-sample properties of estimates…

We consider a continuous time Markov switching model (MSM) which is widely used in mathematical finance. The aim is to estimate the parameters given observations in discrete time. Since there is no finite dimensional filter for estimating the underlying state of the MSM, it is not possible to compute numerically the maximum likelihood parameter estimate via the well known expectation maximization (EM) algorithm. Therefore in this paper, we propose a method of moments based…

GARCH(1,1) 参数准极大似然估计的自助法高阶改进AI 解读

This paper reconsiders a block bootstrap procedure for Quasi Maximum Likelihood estimation of GARCH models, based on the resampling of the likelihood function, as proposed by Gonçalves and White [2004. Maximum likelihood and the bootstrap for nonlinear dynamic models. Journal of Econometrics 119, 199-219]. First, we provide necessary conditions and sufficient conditions, in terms of moments of the innovation process, for the existence of the Edgeworth expansion of the…

含噪声资产价格的跳跃检验：互换方差方法AI 解读

This paper proposes a new test for jumps in asset prices that is motivated by the literature on variance swaps. Formally, the test follows by a direct application of Itô's lemma to the semi-martingale process of asset prices and derives its power from the impact of jumps on the third and higher order return moments. Intuitively, the test statistic reflects the cumulative gain of a variance swap replication strategy which is known to be minimal in the absence of jumps but…

偏微分方程估计及其金融应用AI 解读

Linear parabolic partial differential equations (PDE's) and diffusion models are closely linked through the celebrated Feynman-Kac representation of solutions to PDE's. In asset pricing theory, this leads to the representation of derivative prices as solutions to PDE's. Very often implied derivative prices are calculated given preliminary estimates of the diffusion model for the underlying variable. We demonstrate that the implied derivative prices are consistent and derive…
