This paper introduces a class of multivariate GARCH models with sufficient flexibility to allow for pricing kernels dependent on variances and correlation. This extends the existing literature by explicitly modeling correlation dependent pricing kernels. A large subclass admits closed-form...

This paper revisits the topic of time-scale parameterizations of the Heston-Nandi GARCH (1,1) model to create a new, theoretically valid setting compatible with real financial data. We first estimate parameters using three US market indices and six frequencies to let data reveal the correct,...

The popular Wishart (WI) processes, first introduced by Bru in 1991, exhibit convenient analytical properties for modeling asset prices, particularly a closed-form characteristic function, and the ability to jointly model stochastic volatility and correlation. These features tend to increase...

This paper presents a comprehensive extension of pricing two-dimensional derivatives depending on two barrier constraints. We assume randomness on the covariance matrix as a way of generalizing. We analyse common barrier derivatives, enabling us to study parameter uncertainty and the risk...
