problem 1:

prepare down the equation for the symmetric GARCH and clearly describe its components.

problem 2:

Illustrate the term ‘volatility clustering’.

problem 3:

How would you model leverage effects in equation you mentioned in (a) and why do they manifest?

problem 4:

How would you decide whether a time series data set needs GARCH modelling?

problem 5:

Using exs illustrate the concept of cointegration.

problem 6:

Illustrate the term ‘stationarity’ and its importance.

problem 7:   

Make a distinction between stochastic and deterministic trends?
