This prestigious volume presents five state-of-the-art survey papers on time series econometrics, and a modern financial econometrics software package. Starting with a survey of recent theoretical developments for time series models with GARCH errors, the contributions go on to examine the bootstrapping of financial time series, developments in futures hedging, measures of fit for rational expectations models, asset pricing with observable stochastic discount factors, and a financial econometrics software package for estimating and forecasting ARCH models. Each of the papers blends theoretical and empirical issues, enabling theoreticians and practitioners alike to keep up with the most recent developments in the field. The volume as a whole makes a significant new contribution to the literature.

This is the fifth volume in the series Surveys of Recent Research in Economics. The series is intended to help busy academics and practitioners keep abreast of important developments that relate to, without necessarily being narrowly focused on, their more specific interests. This particular volume should be of interest to academic economists, as well as practitioners engaged in finance and econometrics. The contributions are accessible to advanced undergraduates and provide useful supplementary reading for a wide variety of courses in both Economics and Finance.
Presents five state-of-the-art survey papers on time series econometrics. Presents a modern financial econometrics software package. Surveys recent developments in the field. Discusses the theoretical properties of the GARCH family of models. Will be of interest to both theoreticians and professionals.
