报告内容摘要
The research considers the problem of model uncertainty in the context of multivariate volatility models which is particularly important given the highly restrictive nature of these models that are used in practice, and discusses the use of model averaging techniques as away of dealing with the risk of inadvertently using false models in portfolio management. Evaluation of volatility models is then considered and a simple Value-at-Risk (VaR) diagnostic test is proposed for individual as well as average models. The model averaging idea and the VaR diagnostic tests are illustrated by an application to portfolios of daily returns. The empirical evidence supports the use of thick model averaging strategies over single models or Bayesian type model averaging procedures.
