In the face of growing interest in models with continuous time, as well as rapid development of methods of their estimation, we try to use the diffusion models to modeling and forecasting time series from various financial markets. We use Monte-Carlo-based method, introduced by Cziraky and Kucherenko (2008). Received forecasts are confronted with those determined with the commonly applied parametrical time series models.","PeriodicalId":31914,"journal":{"name":"Dynamic Econometric Models","volume":"10 1","pages":"51-60"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66546938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From this reasons, finding an adequate method of estimating and backtesting is crucial for both the regulators and the risk managers’. The Sign RCA models may be useful to obtain the accurate forecasts of VaR. In this research one briefly describes the Sign RCA models, the Value at Risk and backtesting. We compare the predictive accuracy of alternative VaR forecasts obtained from different models. Empirical example is mainly related to the PBG Capital Group shares on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.","PeriodicalId":31914,"journal":{"name":"Dynamic Econometric Models","volume":"10 1","pages":"61-80"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66546994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the paper we separate the microstructure noise from the price process and determine the noise to signal ratio for the estimates of the realized volatility in the case of the shares of the Polish company Pekao S.A.
