This paper builds and implements multifactor stochastic volatility models for the international oil/energy markets (Brent oil and WTI oil) for the period 2011-2021. The main objective is to make step ahead volatility predictions for the front month contracts followed by an implication discussion...

Stochastic volatility models are very flexible models able to characterize financial volatility evolution. This article explores computational capabilities based on Graphical Processing Units to simulate many Monte Carlo Markov chains in estimating stochastic volatility model parameters through...
