In this paper, one studies the asymptotic behavior of empirical processes based on consecutive residuals of univariate conditional mean and variance models. These processes are then used to develop tests of serial independence of the innovations. Even if the limiting distributions of the...

Test statistics for checking the independence between the innovations of several time series are developed. The time series models considered allow for general specifications for the conditional mean and variance functions that could depend on common explanatory variables. In testing for...

Extending the multiplier central limit theorem and resampling bootstrap to statistics and empirical processes of pseudo-observations, it is shown how to build asymptotically independent copies of statistics and empirical processes to perform statistical tests. Application to parametric and...

It is shown that parametric bootstrap can be used for computing P-values of goodness-of-fit tests of multivariate time series parametric models. These models include Markovian models, GARCH models with non-Gaussian innovations, regime-switching models, as well as semi parametric models involving...

In view of applications to diagnostic tests of ARMA models, the asymptotic behavior of multivariate empirical and copula processes based on residuals of ARMA models is investigated. Multivariate empirical processes based on squared residuals and other functions of the residuals are also...

In this paper, we extend copula-based univariate time series models studied in Chen & Fan (2006) to multivariate time series. Doing so, we tackle at the same time serial dependence as well as interdependence between several time series. The proposed methodology is totally different from the...

We propose an innovative approach for dynamic portfolio insurance that overcomes many of the limitations of the earlier techniques. We transform the Payoff Distribution Model, originally introduced by Dybvig (1988) as a performance measure, to a fund management tool. This approach allows us to...

The derivation of the bi-variate Payoff Distribution model by Kat and Palaro (2005) represents an interesting contribution to the performance evaluation and asset pricing literature. Nonetheless, their approach for evaluating the function is significantly flawed. Recently, Papageorgiou et al....

In this paper, we present a new alternative performance measure (APM) which evaluates not only for the marginal distribution of a given fund but also its' dependence (correlation) with a reference portfolio. This performance measure is of particular value in assessing hedge fund return as the...

In this paper, we focus on a new generalization of multivariate general compound Hawkes process (MGCHP), which we referred to as the multivariate general compound point process (MGCPP). Namely, we applied a multivariate point process to model the order flow instead of the Hawkes process. Law of...
