The aim of this work is to develop a nonparametric tool for detecting dependence in the tails of financial data. We provide a simple method to locate and measure serial dependence in the tails, based on runs tests. Our empirical investigations on many financial time series reveal a strong departure from independence for daily logreturns, which is not filtered out by usual Garch models.

Abstract
The aim of this work is to develop a nonparametric tool for detecting dependence in the tails of financial data. We provide a simple method to locate and measure serial dependence in the tails, based on runs tests. Our empirical investigations on many financial time series reveal a strong departure from independence for daily logreturns, which is not filtered out by usual Garch models.File in questo prodotto:
