We address the general issue of econometric specifications of dynamic asset pricing models, which cover the modern literature on conditionally heteroskedastic factor models as well as equilibrium-based asset pricing models with an intertemporal specification of preferences and market fundamentals.

Studies on long-run purchasing power parity based on rank test for nonlinear cointegration is limited. Therefore, to … is not only capable in the detection of cointegration, but can further distinguish linear from nonlinear relationship if … cointegration exists. In addition, this study also follows the suggestion by Liew et al. (2012) to solve the rank problem in testing …

Credible Granger-causality analysis appears to require post-sample inference, as it is well-known that in-sample fit … terms of power relative to the in-sample Granger-causality F test, is manageable. An illustrative application is given, to a …

Several studies have put forward that hedge fund returns exhibit a nonlinear relationship with equity market returns, captured either through constructed portfolios of traded options or piece-wise linear regressions. This paper provides a statistical methodology to unveil such non-linear...

The purpose of this paper is to propose discrete-time term structure models where the historical dynamics of the factor (x_t) is given, in the univariate case, by a Gaussian AR(p) process, and, in the multivariate case, by a Gaussian n-dimensional VAR(p) process. The factor (x_t) is considered...

This paper analyzes simultaneous exceedances (coexceedances) of several stock index returns for different thresholds with a focus on the Asian crisis in 1997. We introduce a new concept of computing and estimating time-varying coexceedances and usethe quantile regression model to analyze...

Using a flexible semiparametric varying coefficient model specification, this paper examines the role of fiscal policy on the U.S. asset markets (stocks, corporate and treasury bonds). We consider two possible roles of fiscal deficits (or surpluses): as a separate direct information variable and...

The purpose of this paper is to propose a global discrete-time modeling of the term structure of interest rates which is able to capture simultaneously the following important features: (i) an historical dynamics of the factor driving term structure shapes involving several lagged values, and...

Contagion tests that are based on the correlation coefficient assume constant correlations and symmetric impacts of shocks. Moreover, they neglect volatility as a potential factor of contagion. We show that such tests can be misleading when correlations are time-varying and volatility is...
