Multivariate time varying volatility models have attracted a lot of attention in modern finance theory. We provide an empirical study of some multivariate ARCH and GARCH models that already exist in the literature and have attracted a lot of practical interest. Bayesian and classical techniques...

A new multivariate time series model with time varying conditional variances and covariances is presented and analysed. A complete analysis of the proposed model is presented consisting of parameter estimation, model selection and volatility prediction. Classical and Bayesian techniques are used...

The problem of prediction is revisited with a view towards going beyond the typical nonparametric setting and reaching a fully model-free environment for predictive inference, i.e., point predictors and predictive intervals. A basic principle of model-free prediction is laid out based on the...
