Many econometric and data-science applications require a reliable estimate of the covariance matrix, such as Markowitz portfolio selection. When the number of variables is of the same magnitude as the number of observations, this constitutes a difficult estimation problem; the sample covariance...

This paper proposes a novel covariance estimator via a machine learning approach when both the sampling frequency and covariance dimension are large. Assuming that a large covariance matrix can be decomposed into low rank and sparse components, our method simultaneously provides a consistent...

The estimation of the covariances of high-frequency asset prices is problematic because of asynchronous trading and market microstructure noise. In the last years, both parametric and non-parametric methods have been proposed in order to handle these effects. Little attention has instead been...

We propose an estimator of the Covariance Matrix (SWSE) of a large number of assets. This estimator improves the Similarity Weighted Estimator (SWE) introduced in Munnix et al. (2014), by combining it with the shrinkage estimator of the sample covariance matrix towards the market factor...

We construct a parsimonious test of constancy of the correlation matrix in the multivariate conditional correlation … deterministically as a function of time. The alternative is a covariance matrix, not a correlation matrix, so the test may be viewed as … a general test of stability of a constant correlation matrix. The size of the test in finite samples is studied by …
