Seasonality in Mixed Causal-Noncausal Processes

This paper investigates the role of complex and negative roots in mixed causal-noncausal autoregressive (MAR) models. Using partial fraction decompositions, we show that seasonal roots can always be isolated in the moving average representation of purely causal and noncausal AR models. We find that this result extends to the MAR model, which means that no new joint seasonal effects can be generated despite the multiplicative structure of the causal and noncausal polynomials. This results has important consequences for the MAR model selection procedure and these are extensively studied in a Monte Carlo simulation study. An empirical application on COVID-19 and soybean data illustrates the main findings of the paper.

A Residual Bootstrap for Conditional Expected Shortfall

This paper studies a fixed-design residual bootstrap method for the two-step estimator of Francq and Zako\"ian (2015) associated with the conditional Expected Shortfall. For a general class of volatility models the bootstrap is shown to be asymptotically valid under the conditions imposed by Beutner et al. (2018). A simulation study is conducted revealing that the average coverage rates are satisfactory for most settings considered. There is no clear evidence to have a preference for any of the three proposed bootstrap intervals. This contrasts results in Beutner et al. (2018) for the VaR, for which the reversed-tails interval has a superior performance.
