Description
Summary:There are three distinguishing features in the financial time series, such as stock prices, are as follows: (1) Non-normality, (2) serial correlation, and (3) leverage effect. All three points need to be taken into account to model the financial time series. However, multivariate financial time series modeling involves a large number of stocks, with many parameters to be estimated. Therefore, there are few examples of multivariate financial time series modeling that explicitly deal with higher-order moments. Furthermore, there is no multivariate financial time series model that takes all three characteristics above into account. In this study, we propose the generalized orthogonal (GO)-Glosten, Jagannathan, and Runkle GARCH (GJR) model which extends the GO-generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (GARCH) model and incorporates the three features of the financial time series. We confirm the effectiveness of the proposed model by comparing the performance of risk-based portfolios with higher-order moments. The results show that the performance with our proposed model is superior to that with baseline methods, and indicate that estimation methods are important in risk-based portfolios with higher moments.
