Forecasting-volatility models typically rely on either daily or high frequency (HF) data and the choice between these two categories is not obvious. In particular, the latter allows to treat volatility as observable but they suffer of many limitations. HF data feature microstructure problem,...

model, namely SV-GARCH which attempts to bridge the gap between GARCH and stochastic volatility specifications. In nesting … the standard GARCH model as a special case, it has the attractive feature of inheriting the same unconditional properties … of the standard GARCH model but being conditionally heavier-tailed; thus more robust to outliers. It is demonstrated how …
