The introduction by regulators of mandatory margining for bilateral OTCs is going to have a major impact on the derivatives market, particularly in light of the additional funding costs and liquidity requirements that large financial institutions will face. Fabrizio Anfuso, Daniel Aziz, Paul...

To evaluate the price forecasts, we use two data frequencies i.e., annual and quarter with two most demanding techniques, i.e., ARIMA and VAR models to forecast the four index of inflation, named, Consumer Price Index (CPI), Wholesale Price Index (WPI), GNP Price Deflator (GNPPD), and Implicit...

Usage of Monte Carlo simulation for pricing requires a well defined and accurate market implied distribution of risk factors. Overlay, on top of these simulated risk factors, one can also generate conditional prices based on the set of underlying risk factors at future time horizons. The ability...

The limit distribution of conventional test statistics for predictability may depend on the degree of persistence of the predictors. Therefore, diverging results and conclusions may arise because of the different asymptotic theories adopted. Using differencing transformations, we introduce a new...

In this paper, we provide evidence on two alternative mechanisms of interaction between returns and volatilities: the leverage effect and the volatility feedback effect. We stress the importance of distinguishing between realized volatility and implied volatility, and find that implied...

The purpose of this research is to determine whether bankruptcy forecasting models are subject to industry and time specific effects. A sample of 15,848 firms was obtained from the Compustat and CRSP databases, spanning the time period 1950 to 2013, of which 396 were bankrupt. Using five models...

This paper develops parameter instability and structural change tests within predictive regressions for economic systems governed by persistent vector autoregressive dynamics. Specifically, in a setting where all – or a subset – of the variables may be fractionally integrated and the...

The movements in oil prices are very complex and, therefore, seem to be unpredictable. However, one of the main challenges facing econometric models is to forecast such seemingly unpredictable economic series. Traditional linear structural models have not been promising when used for oil price...
