risk prediction plays an increasing role in financial risk management. this study aims to investigate existence of asymmetry and long memory volatility in tehran stock exchange index daily data over period of 1998-2006. 1467 daily index returns are used for volatility modeling via garch (long & short memory) processes for both normal and t-student innovations. the specification and forecasting ...

this paper investigates the nature of volatility characteristics of stock returns in the bangladesh stock markets employing daily all share price index return data of dhaka stock exchange (dse) and chittagong stock exchange (cse) from 02 january 1993 to 27 january 2013 and 01 january 2004 to 20 august 2015 respectively.  furthermore, the study explores the adequate volatility model for the stoc...

the research problem investigated in this paper is modeling volatility and analyzing risk and return’s relationship in tehran stock exchange using garch-family models including garch(1,1), garch(2,2), egarch(1,1), pgarch(1,1), tgarch(1,1), garch(1,1)-m and cgarch(1,1). using the daily returns of tehran stock exchange companies, we focused on two portfolios of all the companies during a 10-year-...

because of its extensive applications in financial analysis, stock market volatility modeling is a significantly important issue for stock market practitioners and academicians. using garch models to formulate the conditional variance heteroskedasticity and the taking advantages of panel data technique such as higher degrees of freedom, more flexibility in the control of the omitted or unobserv...

We introduce a new framework, Realized GARCH, for the joint modeling of returns and realized measures of volatility. A key feature is a measurement equation that relates the realized measure to the conditional variance of returns. The measurement equation facilitates a simple modeling of the dependence between returns and future volatility. Realized GARCH models with a linear or log-linear spec...

importance of risk and uncertainty in financial markets became more apparent after financial crisis in 2007. volatility is the most important measure of risk in financial markets. thus, modeling volatility of financial markets is one of the important issues in finance and economics. in this paper first we tried to specify key features of volatility of daily returns of tehran stock exchange pric...

This paper considers the pricing of options when there are jumps in the pricing kernel and correlated jumps in asset returns and volatilities. Our model nests Duan’s GARCH option models where conditional returns are constrained to being normal, as well as extends Merton’s jump-diffusion model by allowing return volatility to exhibit GARCH-like behavior. Empirical analysis on the S&P 500 index r...

this paper investigates the asymmetry in volatility of returns for the iranian stock market using the daily closing values of the tehran exchange price index (tepix) covering the period from march 25, 2001 to july 25, 2012, with a total of 2743 observations. to this end, two sets of tests have been employed: the first set is based on the residuals derived from a symmetric garch (1,1) model. the...
