In the last few years, according to the evolution of financial markets and the enforcement of international supervisory requirements, an increasing interest has been devoted to risk integration. The original focus on individual risk estimation has been replaced by the growing prominence of...

This paper extends the forward search technique to the analysis of structural time series data. It provides a series of powerful new forward plots that use information from the whole sample to display the effect of each observation on a wide variety of aspects of the fitted model and shows how...

It is well known that transformation of the response may improve the homogeneity and the approximate normality of the errors. Unfortunately, the estimated transformation and related test statistic may be sensitive to the presence of one, or several, atypical observations. In addition, it is...
