the relation between exchange rate variability and stock return volatility and by decomposing this relation into … rates, we find a significant increase in the volatility of U.S. multinational monthly stock returns corresponding to the … period of increased exchange rate variability. This increase in stock return volatility is also significant relative to the …

Most affine models of the term structure with stochastic volatility (SV) predict that the variance of the short rate is … stochastic volatility (USV)." Of the models tested, only the A1(4) USV model is found to generate both realistic volatility … estimates and a good cross-sectional fit.
