We provide conditions for the existence and the unicity of strictly stationary solutions of the usual Dynamic Conditional Correlation GARCH models (DCC-GARCH). The proof is based on Tweedie's (1988) criteria, after having rewritten DCC-GARCH models as nonlinear Markov chains. Moreover, we study...

Estimating asset correlations is difficult in practice since there is little available data and many parameters have to be found. Paul Demey, Jean-Frédéric Jouanin, Céline Roget and Thierry Roncalli present a tractable version of the multi-factor Merton model in which firms are sorted into...
