Flexible Seasonal Long Memory and Economic Time Series

Ooms, M. - Erasmus University Rotterdam, Econometric Institute - 1995

We discuss specification, frequency domain estimation and application of flexible fractionally integrated seasonal long memory time series models, which allow for 'chi-squared' (seasonal) unit root testing. We suggest periodogram regression and approximate ML estimation. We successfully apply a...

Convergence and Persistence of Left-Right Political Orientations in The Netherlands 1978-1995

Eisinga, R.; Franses, Ph.H.B.F.; Ooms, M. - Erasmus University Rotterdam, Econometric Institute - 1997

-Theory- Two theories about trends in left-right political orientations are juxtaposed: the persistence theory claiming that left-right orientations are highly resistant to change versus the irrelevance theory anticipating a move of mass publics towards the center of the left-right continuum....

Ten Things We Should Know About Time Series

McAleer, M.J.; Oxley, L. - Erasmus University Rotterdam, Econometric Institute - 2010

Time series data affect many aspects of our lives. This paper highlights ten things we should all know about time series, namely: a good working knowledge of econometrics and statistics, an awareness of measurement errors, testing for zero frequency, seasonal and periodic unit roots, analysing...

A nonlinear long memory model for US unemployment

Dijk, D.J.C. van; Franses, Ph.H.B.F.; Paap, R. - Erasmus University Rotterdam, Econometric Institute - 2000

Two important empirical features of monthly US unemployment are that shocks to the series seem rather persistent and that unemployment seems to rise faster in recessions than that it falls during expansions. To jointly capture these features of long memory and nonlinearity, respectively, we put...

It Pays to Violate: How Effective are the Basel Accord Penalties?

Veiga, B. da; Chan, F.; McAleer, M.J. - Erasmus University Rotterdam, Econometric Institute - 2009

The internal models amendment to the Basel Accord allows banks to use internal models to forecast Value-at-Risk (VaR) thresholds, which are used to calculate the required capital that banks must hold in reserve as a protection against negative changes in the value of their trading portfolios. As...

Do We Often Find ARCH Because Of Neglected Outliers?

Franses, Ph.H.B.F.; Dijk, D.J.C. van - Erasmus University Rotterdam, Econometric Institute - 1997

In this paper we test for (Generalized) AutoRegressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity [(G)ARCH] in daily and weekly … data on 22 exchange rates and 13 stock market indices using the standard Lagrange Multiplier [LM] test for GARCH and a new … result is that we find spurious GARCH in over 50% of the cases. Using Monte Carlo simulations, in which we evaluate our …
