Abstract

This paper proposes a contemporaneous-threshold smooth transition GARCH (or CSTGARCH) model for dynamic conditional heteroskedasticity. The C-STGARCH model is a generalization to second conditional moments of the contemporaneous smooth transition threshold autoregressive model of Dueker et al. (2007), in which the regime weights depend on the ex ante probability that a contemporaneous latent regime-specific variable exceeds a threshold value. A key feature of the C-STGARCH model is that its transition function depends on all the parameters of the model as well as on the data. These characteristics allow the model to account for the large persistence and regime shifts that are often observed in the conditional second moments of economic and financial time series.
