3 Sklar s Theorem - Theoretical Formulation

4 Sklar s Theorem - Practical Implication How can we exploit this result for statistical modelling ( inference for the joint distribution F )? Stage 1. Margins Modelling F i for i = 1,..., d. Stage 2. Dependence Modelling C

5 Financial Returns - Univariate Stylized Facts The return on day t is R t = 100 ln{p t /P t 1 }: relative price change observations on CAC40 Crash 81 Invasion of Iraq Asian Crisis 9/ Returns 5 l l l l 10 Gulf War LTCM debacle Oil Crises Black Monday Mexican Peso Crisis Dot Com bubble Jan 69 Jan 70 Jan 71 Jan 72 Jan 73 Jan 74 Jan 75 Jan 76 Jan 77 Jan 78 Jan 79 Jan 80 Jan 81 Jan 82 Jan 83 Jan 84 Jan 85 Jan 86 Jan 87 Jan 88 Jan 89 Jan 90 Jan 91 Jan 92 Jan 93 Jan 94 Jan 95 Jan 96 Jan 97 Jan 98 Jan 99 Jan 00 Jan 01 Jan 02 Jan 03

6 Financial Returns - Univariate Stylized Facts Volatility Clustering The returns are uncorrelated but not independent! Returns Squared Returns ACF ACF Lag Lag

7 Financial Returns - Univariate Stylized Facts Heavy Tailedness The returns are not normally distributed! Density empirical normal

8 Stage 1: Margins Modelling

9 Stage 1: Margins Modelling where R t = with the conditions that µ t }{{} conditional mean + σ t }{{} volatility process X t }{{} filtered returns µ t = E t 1 (R t ) σ 2 t = E t 1 [ (Rt µ t ) 2] }{{} shocks X t F X X t are IID having mean 0 & variance 1, X t and σ t are independent at any time point.

10 Stage 1: Margins Modelling Step 1. Modelling the conditional mean µ t Auto-Regressive Moving Average (ARMA) e.g. ARMA(1,0): µ t = ψ 0 + ψ 1 R t 1 Step 2. Modelling the volatility process σ t Generalized Auto-Regressive Conditional Heteroskedastic (GARCH) e.g. GARCH(1,1): σt 2 = ω }{{} 0 + ω 1 (R }{{} t 1 µ t ) 2 + ω }{{} 2 >0 0 0 σ 2 t 1 where 0 < ω 1 + ω 2 < 1 measures degree of volatility persistence.

11 Stage 1: Margins Modelling Step 3. Modelling the distribution F X of filtered returns: It is commonly assumed to be either Normal or Student s t. Instead, we adopt a semi-parametric approach. Specifically, G } eneralizedparetodistribution {{} + E mpiricaldistributionf unction }{{} GPD EDF Tails of F X are modelled by GPD Centre of F X is modelled by EDF

12 Stage 1: Margins Modelling

13 Stage 1: Margins Modelling Theorem (Balkema & de Haan 1974 and Pickands 1975) Let u + be a high threshold. Then we have ( x u Pr [X > x X > u + ] GPD = 1 [1 + ξ + + σ + )] 1/ξ + Let u be a low threshold. Then we have Pr [X < x X < u ] GPD = [ ( u 1 + ξ )] 1/ξ x σ σ > 0 (scale parameter) and ξ R (shape parameter)

14 Stage 1: Margins Modelling F X (x) #(X t x)/n if x [u, u + ] P (1 + ξ (u x)/σ ) 1/ξ if x < u 1 P + (1 + ξ + (x u + )/σ + ) 1/ξ+ if x > u +. P = #(X t < u )/n P + = #(X t > u + )/n

15 Stage 1: Margins Modelling

19 Financial Returns - Multivariate Stylized Facts (1) Non-Linear Dependence: ρ is not a suitable dependence measure

20 Financial Returns - Multivariate Stylized Facts (2) Two Forms of Tail Dependence & Asymmetric Dependence

21 Stage 2: Dependence Modelling Conditional Approach (Heffernan & Tawn 2004)

22 Stage 2: Dependence Modelling Problem of Interest: Consider the conditional distribution Pr {Y j z Y i = y} for y > u (high threshold)

23 Stage 2: Dependence Modelling Asymptotic Assumption: Assume the existence of L j i (y) : R R (location function) S j i (y) : R R (scale function) such that for z R we have { lim Pr Yj L j i (y) y S j i (y) z Y i } = y = G j i (z) where G j i (z) is a non-degenerate distribution.

24 Stage 2: Dependence Modelling Statistical Model: The following non-linear regression model is applied if Y i = y > u Y j = L j i (y) + S j i (y) Z j i Identify the form of location & scale function & error distribution L(y) j i = αy for α [ 1, +1] S(y) j i = y β for β (, 1) G j i (z) it has no specific form
