Bayesian estimation of an extended local scale stochastic volatility model

Deschamps, Philippe J.

In: Journal of Econometrics

A new version of the local scale model of Shephard (1994) is presented. Its features are identically distributed evolution equation disturbances, the incorporation of in-the-mean effects, and the incorporation of variance regressors.
