We introduce a new fractionally integrated model for covariance matrix dynamics based on the long-memory behavior of daily realized covariance matrix kernels and daily return observations. We account for fat tails in both types of data by appropriate distributional assumptions. The covariance...

Realized covariance matrices (RCs) are an important input to asses the risks involved in different investment allocations and it is thus useful to model and forecast them. To this end generalized autoregressive score (GAS) models are employed in this paper. These models are ideal for comparing...

We develop a new model for the multivariate covariance matrix dynamics based on daily return observations and daily realized covariance matrix kernels based on intraday data. Both types of data may be fat-tailed. We account for this by assuming a matrix-F distribution for the realized kernels,...

We develop tests for high-dimensional covariance matrices under a generalized elliptical model. Our tests are based on a central limit theorem for linear spectral statistics of the sample covariance matrix based on self-normalized observations. For testing sphericity, our tests neither assume...
