Desestabilización y la dificultad para cumplir con la cuota de suministro de petróleo en los países de América latina y del Caribe han generado en estas economías evidentes y consuetudinarias crisis económicas que difícilmente enfrentan. Sin embargo, estos países están en la búsqueda...

La cohesión social, concepto especialmente valorado como expresión y resultado del modelo social europeo y asociado al significado del estado de bienestar, quiere transmitir un conjunto de valores como el sentido de pertenencia, equilibrios en la gestión de los asuntos públicos, control de...

The main purpose of this paper is to consider the multivariate GARCH (MGARCH) framework to model the volatility of a multivariate process exhibiting long term dependence in stock returns. More precisely, the long term dependence is examined in the …first conditional moment of US stock returns...

Researchers in finance very often rely on highly persistent - nearly integrated - explanatory variables to predict returns. This paper proposes to stand up to the usual problem of persistent regressor bias, by detrending the highly auto-correlated predictors. We find that the statistical...

This paper presents a 2-regime SETAR model with different long-memory processes in both regimes. We briefly present the memory properties of this model and propose an estimation method. Such a process is applied to the absolute and squared returns of five stock indices. A comparison with simple...

Business surveys are an important element in the analysis of the short-term economic situation because of the timeliness and nature of the information they convey. Especially, surveys are often involved in econometric models in order to provide an early assessment of the current state of the...

In this article, we specify the different approaches followed by the economists and the financial economists in order to use chaos theory. We explain the main difference using this theory with other research domains like the mathematics and the physics. Finally, we present tools necessary for...

This paper focuses on the use of dynamical chaotic systems in Economics and Finance. In these fields, researchers employ different methods from those taken by mathematicians and physicists. We discuss this point. Then, we present statistical tools and problems which are innovative and can be...
