The GARCH model and the Stochastic Volatility [SV] model are competing but non-nested models to describe unobserved … volatility in asset returns. We propose a GARCH model with an additional error term, which can capture SV model properties, and … which can be used to test GARCH against SV. We discuss model representation, parameter estimation and a simple test for …

A growing literature uses changes in residual volatility for identifying structural shocks in vector autoregressive (VAR) analysis. A number of different models for heteroskedasticity or conditional heteroskedasticity are proposed and used in applications in this context. This study reviews the...

The potential for portfolio diversification is driven broadly by two characteristics: the degree to which systematic risk factors are correlated with each other and the degree of dependence individual firms have to the different types of risk factors. Using a global vector autoregressive...

We develop a framework for modeling conditional loss distributions through the introduction of risk factor dynamics. Asset value changes of a credit portfolio are linked to a dynamic global macroeconometric model, allowing macro effects to be isolated from idiosyncratic shocks. Default...
