DAMGARCH extends the VARMA-GARCH model of Ling and McAleer (2003) by introducing multiple thresholds and time-dependent structure in the asymmetry of the conditional variances. DAMGARCH models the shocks affecting the conditional variances on the basis of an underlying multivariate distribution....

Causality is a widely-used concept in theoretical and empirical economics. The recent financial economics literature has used Granger causality to detect the presence of contemporaneous links between financial institutions and, in turn, to obtain a network structure. Subsequent studies combined...

It is well-known that the estimated GARCH dynamics exhibit common patterns. Starting from this fact we extend the Dynamic Conditional Correlation (DCC) model by allowing for a clustering structure of the univariate GARCH parameters. The model can be estimated in two steps, the first devoted to...

Models for realized covariance matrices may suffer for the curse of dimensionality as more traditional multivariate volatility models(such as GARCH and stochastic volatility). Within the class of realized covariance models we focus on the Wishart specification introduced by Gourieroux et al....

We develop a network-based vector autoregressive approach to uncover the interactions amongfinancial assets by integrating multiple realized measures based on high-frequency data. Undera restricted parameter structure, our approach allows the capture of cross-sectional and time ependencies...

We propose the use of state-space models (SSMs) to estimate dynamic spatial relationships from time series data. At each time step, the weight matrix, capturing the latent state, is updated by a spatial autoregressive model. Specifically, we consider two types of SSM: the first one calibrates...
