FINANCIAL ECONOMETRICS SPRING 2013 WEEK VII MULTIVARIATE MODELLING OF VOLATILITY Prof. Dr. Burç ÜLENGİN
MULTIVARIATE VOLATILITY • There may be interactions among the conditional variance of the return series. • Also covariance of the return series may change over the time. • Therefore the full perspective of volatility modelling requires the treatment of variances and covariances together- simultaneously. • When the variances and covariances are modelled it means that correlations are modelled too.
MULTIVARIATE GARCH • In multivariate GARCH models, yt is a vector of the conditional means (Nx1), the conditional variance of yt is an matrix H (NxN). • The diagonal elements of H are the variance terms hii, and the off-diagonal elements are the covariance terms hij.
MULTIVARIATE GARCH • There are numerous different representations of the multivariate GARCH model. • The main representations are: • VECH • Diagonal • BEKK- Baba, Engle, Kraft, Kroner • Constant correlation representation • Principle component representation
VECH REPRESANTATION • Full treatment of the matrix H • In the VECH model, the number of parameters can be exteremely large. • Estimating a large number of parameters is not in theory a problem as long as there is large enough sample size. • The parameters of VECH are estimated by maximum likelihood and the obtaining convergence of the typical optimization algorithm employed in practice be very difficult when a large number of parameters are involved. • Also estimated variances must be positive and it requires the additional restrictions on parameters
VECH REPRESANTATION 2 Variable Case A and B are {Nx(N+1)/2 , Nx(N+1)/2} matrices . In the case of 2 variables, 3 equations and 21 parameters. 5 variables, 20 equations and 820 parameters. 10 variables, 55 equations and 4025 parameters.
DIAGONAL REPRESENTATION • The diagonal representation is based on the assumption that the individual conditional variances and conditional covariances are functions of only lagged values of themselves and lagged squared residuals. • Bollerslev, Engle and Woodridge (1988) proposed • In the case of 2 variables, this representation reduces the number of parameters to be estimated from 21 to 9. • At the expense of losing information on certain interrelationships, such as the relationship between the individual conditional variances and the conditional covariances. • Also estimated variances must be positive and it requires the additional restrictions on parameters

BEKK REPRESENTATION • Engle and Kroner(1995) developed the Baba(1990) approach. • BEKK representation of multivariate GARCH improves on both the VECH and diagonal representation, since H is almost guaranteed to be positive definite. • BEKK representation require more parameters than Diagonal rep. but less parameters than VECH. • It is more general than diagonal rep. as it allows for interaction effects that diagonal rep. does not.

CONSTANT CORRELATION REPRESENTATION • Bollerslev(1990) employes the conditional corelation matrix R to derive a representation of the multivariate GARCH model. • In his R matrix, Bollerslev restricts the conditional correlations to be equal to the correlation coefficients between variables, which are simply constants. Thus R is constant over time. • This representation has the advantage that H will be positive definite.

Principal Component Analysis • We collect 120 financial ratios in order to asses financial health of the firms. How can we reduce these ratios a few indices? • The production control department collect several measures in order to control process. Can we develop some indices in order to summarize the process outcomes? • In order to carry out efficient regression analysis we have to reduce multicollinearity among the explanatory variables if it exists. Can we generate some new indices in order to get orthogonal explanatory series that also contain most of the information of the original variables?
Principal Component Analysis in Finance • To reduce number of risk factors to a manageable dimension. For example, instead of 60 yields of different maturities as risk factors, we might use just 3 principal component. • To identy the key sources of risk. Typically the most important risk factors are parallel shifts, changes in slope and changes in convexity of the curves. • To facilitate the measurement of portfolio risk, for instance by introducing scenarios on the movements in the major risk factors.

Basics & Background • Eigenvalue and Eigenvector: • Eigen originates in the German language and can be loosely translated as “of itself” • Thus an Eigenvalue of a matrix could be conceptualized as a “value of itself” • Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors are utilized in a wide range of applications (PCA, calculating a power of a matrix, finding solutions for a system of differential equations, and growth models)
