We apply a multivariate multiplicative error model (MMEM) and investigate effects in the simultaneous processes of high-frequency return volatilities, trading volume, and trading intensities on the Italien Electronic Interbank Credit Market (e-MID). Analysing five minutes data from the Italian...

Current understanding holds that financial contagion is driven mainly by system-wide interconnectedness of institutions. A distinction has been made between systematic and idiosyncratic channels of contagion, with shocks transmitted through the latter expected to be substantially more likely to...

This study predicts stock market volatility and applies them to the standard problem in finance, namely, asset allocation. Based on machine learning and model averaging approaches, we integrate the drivers’ predictive information to forecast market volatilities. Using various evaluation...

A large number of nonlinear conditional heteroskedastic models have been proposed in the literature. Model selection is crucial to any statistical data analysis. In this article, we investigate whether the most commonly used selection criteria lead to choice of the right specification in a...

We introduce a new semiparametric model, GARCH with Functional EXogeneous Liquidity (GARCH-FunXL), to capture the impact of liquidity, as implied by a stock exchange's complete electronic limit order book (LOB), on asset price volatility. LOB-implied liquidity can be viewed as a functional...

Various parametric volatility models for financial data have been developed to incorporate high-frequency realized volatilities and better capture market dynamics. However, because high-frequency trading data are not available during the close-to-open period, the volatility models often ignore...

This paper introduces a novel quantile approach to harness the high-frequency information and improve the daily conditional quantile estimation. Specifically, we model the conditional standard deviation as a realized GARCH model and employ conditional standard deviation, realized volatility,...

This note discusses some aspects of the paper by Hu and Tsay (2014), "Principal Volatility Component Analysis". The key issues are considered, and are also related to existing conditional covariance and correlation models. Some caveats are given about multivariate models of time-varying...

The problems related to the application of multivariate GARCH models to a market with a large number of stocks are solved by restricting the form of the conditional covariance matrix. It contains one component describing the market and a second simple component to account for the remaining...
