We propose a new nonparametric test to identify mutually exciting jumps in high frequency data. We derive the asymptotic properties of the test statistics and show that the tests have good size and reasonable power in finite sample cases. Using our mutual excitation tests, we empirically...

We propose semi-parametric CUSUM tests to detect a change point in the covariance structure of non-linear multivariate models with dynamically evolving volatilities and correlations. The asymptotic distributions of the proposed statistics are derived under mild conditions. We discuss the...

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 investigate the likely sources of exchange rate dynamics in selected CIS countries (Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Kyrgyzstan, Azerbaijan, and Moldova) over the past decade (1999-2008). The analysis is based on country VAR models augmented by a regional common factor structure (FAVAR model)....
