In this paper we develop a time series model which allows long-term disequilibriums to have epochs of non-stationarity, giving the impression that long term relationships between economic variables have temporarily broken down, before they endogenously collapse back towards their long term...

In a recent paper we have introduced the class of realised kernel estimators of the increments of quadratic variation in the presence of noise. We showed that this estimator is consistent and derived its limit distribution under various assumptions on the kernel weights. In this paper we extend...

We will review the econometrics of non-parametric estimation of the components of the variation of asset prices. This very active literature has been stimulated by the recent advent of complete records of transaction prices, quote data and order books. In our view the interaction of the new data...

We propose a new measure of risk, based entirely on downward moves measured using high frequency data.  Realised semivariances are shown to have important predictive qualities for future market volatility.  The theory of these new measures is spelt out, drawing on some new results from...

We propose a multivariate realised kernel to estimate the ex-post covariation of log-prices.  We show this new consistent estimator is guaranteed to be positive semi-definite and is robust to measurement noise of certain types and can also handle non-synchronous trading.  It is the first...

Suppose we wish to carry out likelihood based inference but we solely have an unbiased simulation based estimator of the likelihood.  We note that unbiasedness is enough when the estimated likelihood is used inside a Metropolis-Hastings algorithm.  This result has recently been introduced in...

This paper studies in some detail a class of high frequency based volatility (HEAVY) models.  These models are direct models of daily asset return volatility based on realized measures constructed from high frequency data.  Our analysis identifies that the models have momentum and mean...
