Predicting default probabilities is at the core of credit risk management and is becoming more and more important for banks in order to measure their client's degree of risk, and for firms to operate successfully. The SVM with evolutionary feature selection is applied to the CreditReform...

Hochdimensionale Regressionsprobleme, die sich dynamisch entwickeln, sind in zahlreichen Bereichen der Wissenschaft anzutreffen. Die Dynamik eines solchen komplexen Systems wird typischerweise mittels der Zeitreiheneigenschaften einer geringen Anzahl von Faktoren analysiert. Diese Faktoren...

Stochastic frontier models are widely used to measure, e.g., technical efficiencies of firms. The classical stochastic frontier model often suffers from the empirical artefact that the residuals of the production function may have a positive skewness, whereas a negative one is expected under the...

This paper examines the link between exchange rate volatility and economic fundamentals. In the framework of a multivariate volatility model that allows volatility spillover, we develop a new impulse response analysis to estimate and decompose the simultaneous effect of macroeconomic news...

This paper provides simple approximations for evaluating option prices and implied volatilities under stochastic volatility. Simple recursive formulae are derived that can easily be implemented in spreadsheets. The traditional random walk assumption, dominating in the analysis of financial...

Discovering the preferences and the behaviour of consumers is a key challenge in marketing. Information about such topics can be gathered through surveys in which the respondents must assign a score to a number of items. A strategy based on different latent class models can be used to analyze...

This paper considers the impact of ordinary least squares (OLS) detrending and the first difference (FD) detrending on autocorrelation estimation in the presence of long memory and deterministic trends. We show that the FD detrending results in inconsistent autocorrelation estimates when the...

In this article, we put forward a generalization of the Dynamic Conditional Correlation (DCC) Model of Engle (2002). Our model allows for asset-specific correlation sensitivities, which is useful in particular if one aims to summarize a large number of asset returns. We propose two estimation...
