Heteroskedasticity Autocorrelation Consistent Covariance Matrix Estimation with Wavelets

I propose a new HAC estimator based on the wavelet representation of the spectral density. Whereas kernel-based HAC estimators [e.g. Newey West (1987) Andrews (1991)] have a fixed bandwidth, a wavelet estimator has bandwidths that vary across wavelet resolution... View Details

Optimal Heteroskedasticity Autocorrelation Consistent Covariance Estimators for GMM Weighting Matrices

This paper considers the optimal bias-variance tradeoff for estimators of the long run covariance matrix used to generate GMM weighting matrices in time series contexts. Minimum MSE HAC estimators do not yield minimum MSE GMM estimators. Instead, achieving... View Details

Scenario Generation for Long Run Interest Rate Risk Assessment

By: Robert F. Engle, Guillaume Roussellet and Emil N. Siriwardane

We propose a statistical model of the term structure of U.S. treasury yields tailored for long-term probability-based scenario generation and forecasts. Our model is easy to estimate and is able to simultaneously reproduce the positivity, persistence, and factor... View Details
