Abstract: Abstract The paper is focused on comparing the forecasting performance of two relatively new types of Vector Error Correction - Multiplicative Stochastic Factor (VEC-MSF) specifications: VEC-MSF with constant conditional correlations, and VEC-MSF-SBEKK with time-varying conditional correlations. For the sake of comparison, random walks, vector autoregressions (VAR) with constant conditional covariance matrix, and VAR-SBEKK models are also considered. Based on daily quotations on three exchange rates: PLN/EUR, PLN/USD, and EUR/USD, where the cointegrating vector may be assumed to be known a priori, we show that in econometric models it can be more important to allow for cointegration relationships than for time-varying conditional covariance matrix.
