粒子高效重要性抽样AI 解读

The efficient importance sampling (EIS) method is a general principle for the numerical evaluation of high-dimensional integrals that uses the sequential structure of target integrands to build variance minimising importance samplers. Despite a number of successful applications in high dimensions, it is well known that importance sampling strategies are subject to an exponential growth in variance as the dimension of the integration increases. We solve this problem by…

利用显示偏好评估资产定价模型AI 解读

We propose a new method of testing asset pricing models that relies on quantities rather than just prices or returns. We use the capital flows into and out of mutual funds to infer which risk model investors use. We derive a simple test statistic that allows us to infer, from a set of candidate models, the risk model that is closest to the model that investors use in making their capital allocation decisions. Using our method, we assess the performance of the most commonly…

非常规货币政策措施的影响：欧洲央行证券市场计划的实证证据AI 解读

We assess the yield impact of asset purchases within the European Central Bank׳s (ECB) Securities Markets Programme (SMP) in five euro area sovereign bond markets from 2010–11. In addition to large announcement effects, we find an impact of approximately −3 basis points at the five-year maturity for purchases of 1/1000 of the outstanding debt. Bond yield volatility and tail risk are lower on intervention days for most SMP countries. A dynamic specification points to both…

价格与波动率的共同跳跃AI 解读

The nature of the dependence between discontinuities in prices and contemporaneous discontinuities in volatility (co-jumps) has been reported by many as being elusive, in terms of sign, magnitude, and statistical significance. Using a novel identification strategy in continuous time relying on trade-level information for spot variance estimation, as well as infinitesimal cross-moments, we document that a sizeable proportion of discontinuous changes in prices are associated…

未知组别归属下具有分组因子结构的面板数据模型AI 解读

Summary This paper studies panel data models with unobserved group factor structures. The group membership of each unit and the number of groups are left unspecified. We estimate the model by minimizing the sum of least squared errors with a shrinkage penalty. The number of explanatory variables can be large. The regressions coefficients can be homogeneous or group specific. The consistency and asymptotic normality of the estimator are established. We also introduce new C p…

交易碎片化对英国股票市场质量的影响AI 解读

Summary We investigate the effects of fragmentation in equity markets on the quality of trading outcomes in a panel of FTSE stocks over the period 2008–2011. This period coincided with a great deal of turbulence in the UK equity markets, which had multiple causes that need to be controlled for. To achieve this, we use the common correlated effects estimator for large heterogeneous panels. We extend this estimator to quantile regression to analyse the whole conditional…

高频数据的广义积分矩方法AI 解读

We propose a semiparametric two‐step inference procedure for a finite‐dimensional parameter based on moment conditions constructed from high‐frequency data. The population moment conditions take the form of temporally integrated functionals of state‐variable processes that include the latent stochastic volatility process of an asset. In the first step, we nonparametrically recover the volatility path from high‐frequency asset returns. The nonparametric volatility estimator…

大型股票横截面数据中的时变风险溢价AI 解读

We develop an econometric methodology to infer the path of risk premia from a large unbalanced panel of individual stock returns. We estimate the time-varying risk premia implied by conditional linear asset pricing models where the conditioning includes both instruments common to all assets and asset-specific instruments. The estimator uses simple weighted two-pass cross-sectional regressions, and we show its consistency and asymptotic normality under increasing…

高维动态随机 Copula 模型AI 解读

We build a class of copula models that captures time-varying dependence across large panels of financial assets. Our models nest Gaussian, Student’s t, grouped Student’s t, and generalized hyperbolic copulas with time-varying correlations matrices, as special cases. We introduce time-variation into the densities by writing them as factor models with stochastic loadings. The proposed copula models have flexible dynamics and heavy tails yet remain tractable in high dimensions…

日内风险价值：非对称自回归条件持续时间方法AI 解读

We propose to compute the Intraday Value-at-Risk (IVaR) for stocks using real-time transaction data. Tick-by-tick data filtered by price duration are modeled using a two-state asymmetric autoregressive conditional duration (AACD) model, and the IVaR is calculated using Monte Carlo simulation based on the estimated AACD model. Backtesting results for the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) show that the IVaR calculated using the AACD method outperforms those using the Dionne et…

非线性时间序列模型中条件分位数的统计推断AI 解读

This paper studies the statistical properties of a two-step conditional quantile estimator in nonlinear time series models with unspecified error distribution. The asymptotic distribution of the quasi-maximum likelihood estimators and the filtered empirical percentiles is derived. Three applications of the asymptotic result are considered. First, we construct an interval estimator of the conditional quantile without any distributional assumptions. Second, we develop a…

校准期权定价模型的设定检验AI 解读

In spite of the popularity of model calibration in finance, empirical researchers have put more emphasis on model estimation than on the equally important goodness-of-fit problem. This is due partly to the ignorance of modelers, and more to the ability of existing statistical tests to detect specification errors. In practice, models are often calibrated by minimizing a loss function of the differences between the modeled and actual observations. Under this approach, it is…

非负时间序列乘法误差模型的设定错误检验AI 解读

In recent years, analysis of financial time series focuses largely on data related to market trading activity. Apart from modeling of the conditional variance of returns within the generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) family of models, presently attention is also devoted to that of other market variables, for instance volumes, number of trades or financial durations. To this end, a large group of researchers focus their studies on a class of…

一种新的双曲记忆 GARCH 模型AI 解读

There are two commonly used hyperbolic GARCH processes, the FIGARCH and HYGARCH processes, in modeling the long-range dependence in volatility. However, the FIGARCH process always has infinite variance, and the HYGARCH model has a more complicated form. This paper builds a simple bridge between a common GARCH model and an integrated GARCH model, and hence a new hyperbolic GARCH model along the lines of FIGARCH models. The new model remedies the drawback of FIGARCH processes…

重尾创新 ARCH 类模型的符号综合诊断检验AI 解读

This paper proposes a sign-based portmanteau test for diagnostic checking of ARCH-type models estimated by the least absolute deviation approach. Under the strict stationarity condition, the asymptotic distribution is obtained. The new test is applicable for very heavy-tailed innovations with only finite fractional moments. Simulations are undertaken to assess the performance of the sign-based test, as well as a comparison with other two portmanteau tests. A real empirical…

Significant theoretical contributions to financial econometrics have been made by experts in statistics, econometrics, mathematics, and time series analysis. The purpose of this special issue of the journal on “Frontiers in Time Series and Financial Econometrics” is to highlight several areas of research by leading academics in which novel methods have…

通过含非对称性与长记忆的因子模型预测已实现协方差AI 解读

Modeling covariance structures are known to suffer from the curse of dimensionality. In order to avoid the problem for forecasting, the paper proposes a new factor multivariate stochastic volatility (fMSV) model for realized covariance measures that accommodates asymmetry and long memory. Using the basic structure of the fMSV model, the paper extends the dynamic correlation MSV model, the conditional/stochastic Wishart autoregressive models, the matrix-exponential MSV model,…

长记忆随机波动模型的样本分位数分析AI 解读

This study investigates asymptotic properties of sample quantile estimates in the context of long-memory stochastic volatility models in which the latent volatility component is an exponential transformation of a linear long-memory time series. We focus on the least absolute deviation quantile estimator and show that while the underlying process is a sequence of stationary martingale differences, the estimation errors are asymptotically normal with the convergence rate which…

具有变量选择的函数型指数系数模型AI 解读

We consider model (variable) selection in a semi-parametric time series model with functional coefficients. Variable selection in the semi-parametric model must account for the fact that the parametric part of the model is estimated at a faster convergence rate than the nonparametric component. Our variable selection procedures employ a smoothly clipped absolute deviation penalty function and consist of two steps. The first is to select covariates with functional…

分数布朗运动驱动的部分观测随机微分方程的贝叶斯推断AI 解读

We consider continuous-time diffusion models driven by fractional Brownian motion. Observations are assumed to possess a nontrivial likelihood given the latent path. Due to the non-Markovian and high-dimensional nature of the latent path, estimating posterior expectations is computationally challenging. We present a reparameterization framework based on the Davies and Harte method for sampling stationary Gaussian processes and use it to construct a Markov chain Monte Carlo…

长记忆随机波动模型中的信号提取AI 解读

Long memory in stochastic volatility (LMSV) models are flexible tools for the modeling of persistent dynamic volatility, which is a typical characteristic of financial time series. However, their empirical applicability is limited because of the complications inherent in the estimation of the model and in the extraction of the volatility component. This paper proposes a new technique for volatility extraction, based on a semiparametric version of the optimal…

正特征函数的非参数识别AI 解读

Important features of certain economic models may be revealed by studying positive eigenfunctions of appropriately chosen linear operators. Examples include long-run risk–return relationships in dynamic asset pricing models and components of marginal utility in external habit formation models. This paper provides identification conditions for positive eigenfunctions in nonparametric models. Identification is achieved if the operator satisfies two mild positivity conditions…

相依随机变量函数的极端分位数估计AI 解读

Summary We propose a new method for estimating the extreme quantiles for a function of several dependent random variables. In contrast with the conventional approach based on extreme value theory, we do not impose the condition that the tail of the underlying distribution admits an approximate parametric form, and, furthermore, our estimation makes use of the full observed data. The method proposed is semiparametric as no parametric forms are assumed on the marginal…

未解释因子对第二步回归拟合优度的影响AI 解读

We construct the large sample distributions of the OLS and GLS R2’s of the second pass regression of the Fama and MacBeth (1973) two pass procedure when the observed proxy factors are minorly correlated with the true unobserved factors. This implies an unexplained factor structure in the first pass residuals and, consequently, a large estimation error in the estimated beta’s which is spanned by the beta’s of the unexplained true factors. The average portfolio returns and the…
