The paper considers the problem of volatility co-movement, namely as to whether two nancial returns have perfectly correlated common volatility process, in the framework of multivariate stochastic volatility models and proposes a test which checks the volatility co-movement. The proposed test is...

The paper considers the problem of volatility co-movement, namely as to whether two financial returns have perfectly correlated common volatility process, in the framework of multivariate stochastic volatility models and proposes a test which checks the volatility co-movement. The proposed test...

This paper provides locally optimal pseudo-Gaussian and rank-based tests for<br/>the cointegration rank in linear cointegrated error-correction models with i.i.d.<br/>elliptical innovations. The proposed tests are asymptotically distribution-free,<br/>hence their validity does not depend on the actual...

An influential paper by Kleibergen (2005) introduces Lagrange multiplier (LM) and conditional likelihood ratio-like (CLR) tests for nonlinear moment condition models. These procedures aim to have good size performance even when the parameters are unidentified or poorly identified. However, the...
