Static and dynamic models for multivariate distribution forecasts: Proper scoring rule tests of factor-quantile versus multivariate GARCH models
该研究使用多种适当多元评分规则,比较静态模型(如经验分布函数和新因子分位数模型)与动态非对称多元GARCH模型在预测八维金融资产(汇率、利率和商品期货)联合分布上的表现,对风险管理和资产定价有参考价值。
Many static and dynamic models exist to forecast Value-at-Risk and other quantile-related metrics used in financial risk management. Industry practice favours simpler, static models such as historical simulation or its variants. Most academic research focuses on dynamic models in the GARCH family. While numerous studies examine the accuracy of multivariate models for forecasting risk metrics, there is little research on accurately predicting the entire multivariate distribution. However, this is an essential element of asset pricing or portfolio optimization problems having non-analytic solutions. We approach this highly complex problem using various proper multivariate scoring rules to evaluate forecasts of eight-dimensional multivariate distributions: exchange rates, interest rates and commodity futures. This way, we test the performance of static models, namely, empirical distribution functions and a new factor-quantile model with commonly used dynamic models in the asymmetric multivariate GARCH class.
