This paper compares different GARCH models in terms of their out-of-sample predictive ability of leveraged loan market volatility. The study investigates whether the asymmetric effects of good and bad news on volatility is present and how distributional assumptions affect the selection of GARCH...

The asset allocation is a practical problem for most institutional and private investors, who routinely deal with a wide variety of stocks, bonds and options. Evidence suggests that both the expected return and the volatility vary over time. Many studies find that the expected returns have...

In this paper, we used the GARCH (1,1) and GARCH-M (1,1) models to investigate volatility and persistence at daily frequency for European and US financial markets. In the study we included fourteen stock indices (twelve Europeans and two Americans), during March 2013 - January 2017. The results...

The aim of this paper is to determine whether forward-looking option-implied returns forecasts lead to better out-of-sample portfolio performance than conventional time series models. We consider a simple two-asset setting with a risk-free asset and the S&P 500 index the risky asset with monthly...

Since portfolio management relies on the association of portfolio diversification, analyzing the spillover between the United States (US) and Asian-Pacific financial markets has become more critical. If Asian stock markets have low or negative correlations with each other and/or the US market,...

Classical quantitative finance models such as the Geometric Brownian Motion or its later extensions such as local or stochastic volatility models do not make sense when seen from a physics-based perspective, as they are all equivalent to a negative mass oscillator with a noise. This paper...

We consider a market with fractional Brownian motion with stochastic integrals generated by the Riemann sums. We found that this market is arbitrage free if admissible strategies that are using observations with an arbitrarily small delay. Moreover, we found that this approach eliminates the...

Abreu and Brunnermeier (2003) have argued that bubbles are not suppressed by arbitrageurs because they fail to synchronise on the uncertain beginning of the bubble. We propose an indirect quantitative test of this hypothesis and confront it with the alternative according to which bubbles persist...
