6 Estimating a copula model The Copula model F (X 1t, X 2t ) = C {F 1 (X 1t ), F 2 (X 2t )} The joint pdf f (X 1t, X 2t ) = c(f 1 (X 1t ; φ 1 ), F 2 (X 2t ; φ 2 ); θ) The joint log-likelihood 2 f i (X it, ; φ i ) i=1 L(θ, φ) = T ln c(f 1 (X 1t ; φ 1 ), F 2 (X 2t ; φ 2 ); θ) t=1 T T + ln f 1 (X 1t ; φ 1 ) + ln f 2 (z 2t ; φ 2 ) t=1 t=1 L(θ, φ) = L C (θ, φ) + L V (φ) (φ, θ) = [φ 1, φ 2, θ] is the parameter vector to be estimated c(u, v) = 2 C(u,v) u v

9 Parametric models Patton Patton (26): θ is a function of lagged past observations and autoregressive term ) ρ t = Λ 1 ( ω + βλ 1 1 (ρ t 1) + α 1 m θ t = Λ 2 ω + βθ t 1 + α 1 m m Φ 1 (U 1,t i )Φ 1 (U 2,t i ) i=1 m 1 u t j v t j j= Dynamic conditional correlation (DCC) Heinen, Valdesogo (28): The correlation is driven by the crossproduct of lagged standardized residuals and autoregressive term R t = diag{q} 1/2 Q t diag{q} 1/2 Q t = Ω(1 α β) + αy t 1 Y t 1 + βq t 1 τ t = 2 arcsin(ρt), θt = γ(τt) π where Y it = Φ 1 (U i,t ), Y t = (Y 1t, Y 2t )
10 Stochastic and semiparametric models Stochastic autoregressive copula (SCAR) Hafner, Manner (29): θ is driven by an independent stochastic process λ t = ω + βλ t 1 + σ ηη t η t iid N(, 1) θ = Λ(λ t) Semiparametric dynamic copula (SDC) Hafner, Reznikova (29): θ a smooth function of time L C (θ; h, τ) = T l(u 1t, U 2t ; θ)k h (t/t τ) t=1 θ(τ) = arg max L(θ; h, τ) θ where K ( ) is a kernel and h is a bandwidth
11 Local parametric fitting Local change point (LCP) Giacomini et al. (29): θ is approximated by a constant on a time invariant interval I t = [t m t, t[, t = 1,..., T Idea: test sequentially the nested intervals from I t on the presence of the break point.
12 Regime switching copula (RSC) Pelletier(26), Garcia, Tsafack (28), Chollete et al.(28): allow for two regimes, characterized by different levels of dependence L(θ) = η t = T log(1 ( ξ t t 1 η t)) t=1 ( c1 (U 1t, U 2t ; θ 1 ) c 2 (U 1t, U 2t ; θ 2 ) ) where ξ t t 1 is the vector of estimated transition probabilities using information until (t 1) is the Hadamard product

25 Conclusion Results log-likelihood is a strong model selection criterion, when variation of the dependence parameter is taken into account Anderson-Darling test has acceptable size and power properties DQ test of Engle and Manganelli (24) only shows if the model fits the data Recommendations RSC model showed good performance in the simulation study, is easy to program and is not computationally tedious
