- W2949272246 abstract "This dissertation is in the form of three essays on the topic of component and long memory GARCH models. The unifying feature of the thesis is the focus on investigating European index option evaluation using these models.%%%%The first essay presents a new model for the valuation of European options. In this model, the volatility of returns consists of two components. One of these components is a long-run component that can be modeled as fully persistent. The other component is short-run and has zero mean. The model can be viewed as an affine version of Engle and Lee (1999), allowing for easy valuation of European options. The model substantially outperforms a benchmark single-component volatility model that is well established in the literature. It also fits options better than a model that combines conditional heteroskedasticity and Poisson normal jumps. While the improvement in the component model's performance is partly due to its improved ability to capture the structure of the smirk and the path of spot volatility, its most distinctive feature is its ability to model the term structure. This feature enables the component model to jointly model long-maturity and short-maturity options.%%%%The second essay derives two new GARCH variance component models with non-normal innovations. One of these models has an affine structure and leads to a closed-form option valuation formula. The other model has a non-affine structure and hence, option valuation is carried out using Monte Carlo simulation. We provide an empirical comparison of these two new component models and the respective special cases with normal innovations. We also compare the four component models against GARCH(1,1) models which they nest. All eight models are estimated using MLE on S&P500 returns. The likelihood criterion strongly favors the component models as well as non-normal innovations. The properties of the non-affine models differ significantly from those of the affine models. Evaluating the performance of component variance specifications for option valuation using parameter estimates from returns data also provides strong support for component models. However, support for non-normal innovations and non-affine structure is less convincing for option valuation.%%%%The third essay aims to investigate the impact of long memory in volatility on European option valuation. We mainly compare two groups of GARCH models that allow for long memory in volatility. They are the component Heston-Nandi GARCH model developed in the first essay, in which the volatility of returns consists of a long-run and a short-run component, and a fractionally integrated Heston-Nandi GARCH (FIHNGARCH) model based on Bollerslev and Mikkelsen (1999). We investigate the performance of the models using S&P500 index returns and cross-sections of European options data. The component GARCH model slightly outperforms the FIGARCH in fitting return data but significantly dominates the FIHNGARCH in capturing option prices. The findings are mainly due to the shorter memory of the…" @default.
