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.
