In ctruciosm/RM2006: RiskMetrics 2006 Methodology

Description

Estimation of the conditional covariance matrix using the RiskMetrics 2006 methodology of Zumbach (2007).

Usage

RM2006(data, tau0, tau1, kmax,rho)

Arguments

data	Matrix containing a TxK time series returns.
tau0	optional input parameter. Default 1560
tau1	optional input parameter. Default 4
kmax	optional input parameter. Default 14
rho	optional input parameter. Default 1.4142

Details

More details can be found in Zumbach (2007) and in the MFE Toolbox of Kevin Sheppard (function riskmetrics2006).

Value

The funcion returns an array containing for each t (t = 1, ..., T+1) a KxK matrix with the conditional covariance matrix estimates.
