Bayesian Estimation of the GARCH(1,1) Model with Student-t Innovations in R

Author

Listed:
  • Ardia, David

Abstract

This paper presents the R package bayesGARCH which provides functions for the Bayesian estimation of the parsimonious but effective GARCH(1,1) model with Student-t innovations. The estimation procedure is fully automatic and thus avoids the time-consuming and difficult task of tuning a sampling algorithm. The usage of the package is shown in an empirical application to exchange rate log-returns.
