The Econometric Modelling of Financial Time Series by Terence C. Mills, Raphael N. Markellos
This textbook provides detailed coverage of the latest research techniques and findings relating to the empirical analysis of financial markets. The third edition contains a wealth of new material reflecting the developments of the last decade. The central material on unit root processes and the modelling of trends and structural breaks has been substantially expanded into a chapter of its own.
Particular attention is paid to the wide range of nonlinear models that are used to analyse financial data observed at high frequencies and to the long memory characteristics found in financial time series.
There is also an extended discussion of the treatment of volatility, accompanied by a new chapter on nonlinearity and its testing.
