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.
