The GARCH(1,1) model and its extensions have become a standard econometric tool for modeling volatility dynamics of financial returns and port-folio risk. In this paper, we propose an adjustment of GARCH implied conditional value-at-risk and expected shortfall forecasts that exploits the...

Common approaches to test for the economic value of directional forecasts are based on the classical Chi-square test for independence, Fisher’s exact test or the Pesaran and Timmerman (1992) test for market timing. These tests are asymptotically valid for serially independent observations....

In order to improve the dynamic assessment of financial market interdependencies, we develop a new Markov switching approach to multivariate volatility modelling. More specific, we take advantage of the flexible copula multivariate GARCH model of Lee and Long (2009), and allow state dependence...
