We consider the problem of ex-ante forecasting conditional correlation patterns using ultra high frequency data. Flexible semiparametric predictors referring to the class of dynamic panel and dynamic factor models are adopted for daily forecasts. The parsimonious set up of our approach allows to...

A class of dynamic factor and dynamic panel models is proposed for daily high dimensional correlation matrices of asset returns. These flexible semiparametric predictors process ultra high frequency information and allow to exploit both realized correlation matrices and exogenous factors for...
