This paper considers spot variance path estimation from datasets of intraday high frequency asset prices in the presence of diurnal variance patterns, jumps, leverage effects and microstructure noise. We rely on parametric and nonparametric methods. The estimated spot variance path can be used...

This paper revisits the fractional co-integrating relationship between ex-ante implied volatility and ex-post realized … volatility. Previous studies on stock index options have found biases and inefficiencies in implied volatility as a forecast of … future volatility. It is argued that the concept of corridor implied volatility (CIV) should be used instead of the popular …

In this paper we test for (Generalized) AutoRegressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity [(G)ARCH] in daily data on 22 exchange rates and 13 stock market indices using the standard Lagrange Multiplier [LM] test for GARCH and a LM test that is resistant to patches of additive outliers. The data span...

Understanding the jump dynamics of market prices is important for asset pricing and risk management. Despite their analytical tractability, parametric models may impose unrealistic restrictions on the temporal dependence structure of jumps. In this paper, we introduce a nonparametric inference...

We propose a multivariate generalization of the multiplicative volatility model of Engle and Rangel (2008), which has a …

If the intensity parameter in a jump diffusion model is identically zero, then parameters characterizing the jump size density cannot be identified. In general, this lack of identification precludes consistent estimation of identified parameters. Hence, it should be standard practice to...
