Term Premium and Long-range Dependence in Volatility: A FIGARCH-M Estimation on Some Asian CountriesUniversity of Paris, X-Nanrerre, modem-CNRS France
University of Paris, X-nanrerre, THEMA-CNRS, UFR SEGMI, 200 avenue de la République, 92001 Nanterre Cedex, France Recent events in financial markets put forward the relevance of a study relating to the Asian interest rate term premia volatility series. More specifically, our object is to test whether long-term dependent processes, such as FIGARCH ones, are appropriated for modelling volatility series. Results suggest that the considered Asian series of volatility are characterised by a strong dependent structure, which indicates that shocks to volatility have persistent consequences. Moreover, through the estimation of FIGARCH in mean processes, we show that the long-term component of volatility has an impact on term premia series.
Key Words: Term premium long-term memory FIGARCH in mean processes
