Estimating stochastic volatility models with student-t distributed errors

This dissertation aims to extend on the idea of Bollerslev (1987), estimating ARCH models with Student-t distributed errors, to estimating Stochastic Volatility (SV) models with Student-t distributed errors. It is unclear whether Gaussian distributed errors sufficiently account for the observed lept...
