Bayesian Semi-parametric Realized-CARE Models for Tail Risk Forecasting Incorporating Range and Realized Measures

Abstract: A new framework named Realized Conditional Autoregressive Expectile (Realized- CARE) is proposed, through incorporating a measurement equation into the conventional CARE model, in a framework analogous to Realized-GARCH. The Range and realized measures (Realized Variance and Realized Range) are employed as the dependent variables of the measurement equation, since they have proven more efficient than return for volatility estimation. The dependence between Range & realized measures and expectile can be modelled with this measurement equation. The grid search accuracy of the expectile level will be potentially improved with introducing this measurement equation. In addition, through employing a quadratic fitting target search, the speed of grid search is significantly improved. Bayesian adaptive Markov Chain Monte Carlo is used for estimation, and demonstrates its superiority compared to maximum likelihood in a simulation study. Furthermore, we propose an innovative sub-sampled Realized Range and also adopt an existing scaling scheme, in order to deal with the micro-structure noise of the high frequency volatility measures. Compared to the CARE, the parametric GARCH and the Realized-GARCH models, Value-at-Risk and Expected Shortfall forecasting results of 6 indices and 3 assets series favor the proposed Realized-CARE model, especially the Realized-CARE model with Realized Range and sub-sampled Realized Range.
