We introduce the Realized Exponential GARCH model that can utilize multiple realized volatility measures for the modeling of a return series. The model specifies the dynamic properties of both returns and realized measures, and is characterized by a flexible modeling of the dependence between...

We study financial volatility during the Global Financial Crisis and use the largest volatility shocks to identify major events during the crisis. Our analysis makes extensive use of high-frequency financial data to model volatility and to determine the timing within the day when the largest...
