Abstract
To capture the "long-memory" effect in volatility, a multiplicative component conditional autoregressive range (MCCARR) model is proposed. We show theoretically that the MCCARR model can capture the long-memory effect well. An empirical study is performed on the Standard & Poor's 500 index, and the results show that the MCCARR model outperforms both conditional autoregressive range and heterogeneous autoregressive models for in-sample and out-of-sample volatility forecasting.
期刊介绍:
This international peer-reviewed journal publishes a broad range of original research papers which aim to further develop understanding of financial risk management. As the only publication devoted exclusively to theoretical and empirical studies in financial risk management, The Journal of Risk promotes far-reaching research on the latest innovations in this field, with particular focus on the measurement, management and analysis of financial risk. The Journal of Risk is particularly interested in papers on the following topics: Risk management regulations and their implications, Risk capital allocation and risk budgeting, Efficient evaluation of risk measures under increasingly complex and realistic model assumptions, Impact of risk measurement on portfolio allocation, Theoretical development of alternative risk measures, Hedging (linear and non-linear) under alternative risk measures, Financial market model risk, Estimation of volatility and unanticipated jumps, Capital allocation.
