Omnibus diagnostic procedures for vector multiplicative errors models
摘要
We suggest specification tests for the conditional mean function in vector multiplicative error models. The test statistics are easy to compute given a suitable estimator of the model parameters. Consistency of the test statistic is proved, the asymptotic distribution of the test under the null hypothesis is studied, while a bootstrap resampling is used in order to approximate critical points and actually carry out the test. Finite-sample results are presented as well as applications of the proposed procedures to real data from the financial markets.
