In this paper, we extend the parametric, asymmetric, stochastic volatility model (ASV), where returns are correlated with volatility, by flexibly modeling the bivariate distribution of the return and volatility innovations nonparametrically. Its novelty is in modeling the joint, conditional,...

Empirical volatility studies have discovered nonstationary, long-memory dynamics in the volatility of the stock market and foreign exchange rates. This highly persistent, infinite variance - but still mean reverting - behavior is commonly found with nonparametric estimates of the fractional...

In this paper we are concerned with estimating the fractional order of integration associated with a long-memory stochastic volatility model. We develop a new Bayesian estimator based on the Markov chain Monte Carlo sampler and the wavelet representation of the log-squared returns to draw values...
