European style options for various maturities. We analyze the validity of the model given its ability to price one-day ahead … out-of-sample call options and also its ability to capture the empirical dynamic of the volatility skew. First, we get a … severe mispricing for deep out-of-the-money and short term call options. Second, this model reveals a good ability to capture …

This note presents the R package bayesGARCH (Ardia, 2007) which provides functions for the Bayesian estimation of the parsimonious and effective GARCH(1,1) model with Student-<I>t</I> innovations. The estimation procedure is fully automatic and thus avoids the tedious task of tuning a MCMC sampling...</i>

In this paper we use Monte Carlo simulation to investigate the impact of effect size heterogeneity on the results of a meta-analysis. Specifically, we address the small sample behaviour of the OLS, the fixed effects regression and the mixed effects meta-estimators under three alternative...

Misspecifications and differences in operational definitions of elasticities in primary studies carry over to meta-analysis results. We show that the current practice of accounting for such primary study aber-rations in a meta-analysis by means of dummy variables goes a long way in mitigating...

In non-experimental sciences the errors associated with model misspecifications in primarystudies carry over to meta-analysis. We use Monte Carlo simulations to analyse the effects ofthese misspecifications on results of a meta-analysis using a meta-estimator that calculates asimple average...

Quantiles play an important role in modelling quality of service in the service industry and in modelling risk in the financial industry. Recently, Hong showed in his breakthrough papers that efficient simulation based estimators can be obtained for quantile sensitivities by means of sample path...
