The goal of this paper is to illuminate the capability of the component GARCH model of Ding and Granger (1996) and Engle and Lee (1999) to reproduce the long memory-type behavior of financial volatility. The potential of this model to capture the long memory dynamics observed in measures of...

In this paper we construct a model of stock market, interest rate and output interaction which is a generalization of the well known 1981 model of Blanchard. We allow for imperfect substitutability between stocks and bonds in the asset market and for lagged portfolio adjustment. The reaction of...

This paper investigates the problem of testing for the symmetry of linear time series driven by asymmetric innovations. In particular, we examine the performance of alternative symmetry tests when innovations are fat tailed. Among the tests considered, only the test based on the tail estimator...
