The accuracy of financial time series forecasts often rely on the model precision and the availability of actual observations
for forecast evaluations. This study aimed to tackle these issues in order to obtain a suitable asymmetric time-varying
volatility model that outperformed in the forecast evaluations based on interday and intraday data. The model precision
was examined based on the most appropriate time-varying volatility representation under the autoregressive conditional
heteroscedascity framework. For forecast precision, the evaluations were conducted under three loss functions using the
volatility proxies and realized volatility. The empirical studies were implemented on two major financial markets and the
estimated results are applied in quantifying their market risks. Empirical results indicated that Zakoian model provided
the best in-sample forecasts whereas DGE on the other hand indicated better out-of-sample forecasts. For the type of
volatility proxy selection, the implementation of intraday data in the latent volatility indicated significant improvement
in all the time horizon forecasts. |
