In this paper, we propose several finite-sample specification tests for multivariate linear regressions (MLR) with applications to asset pricing models. We focus on departures from the assumption of i.i.d. errors assumption, at univariate and multivariate levels, with Gaussian and non-Gaussian...

In this paper, we propose exact inference procedures for asset pricing models that can be formulated in the framework of a multivariate linear regression (CAPM), allowing for stable error distributions. The normality assumption on the distribution of stock returns is usually rejected in...

In this paper we propose exact likelihood-based mean-variance efficiency tests of the market portfolio in the context of Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), allowing for a wide class of error distributions which include normality as a special case. These tests are developed in the frame-work of...

We study the problem of testing the error distribution in a multivariate linear regression (MLR) model. The tests are functions of appropriately standardized multivariate least squares residuals whose distribution is invariant to the unknown cross-equation error covariance matrix. Empirical...

In this paper, we propose finite and large sample likelihood based test procedures for possibly non-linear hypotheses on the coefficients of SURE systems. Two complementary approaches are described. First, we propose an exact Monte Carlo bounds test based on the standard likelihood ratio...

This paper is concerned with bootstrap hypothesis testing in high dimensional linear regression models. Using a theoretical framework recently introduced by Anatolyev (2012), we show that bootstrap F, LR and LM tests are asymptotically valid even when the numbers of estimated parameters and...
