The hedging performance results of generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity models are mixed; we address this herein by adopting an asymptotic setting to determine the relative performance of competing hedge ratios. The proxy variable is constructed through precise realized measures rather than through noisy squared returns because the substitution of the latent true hedged portfolio...
This study compares the performance of hedged equity index portfolios constructed using either a generalized autoregressive score (GAS) or a realized GAS (GRAS) model. GAS models encompass popular models, and studies indicate that high‐frequency data improve a model's forecasting ability. The in‐sample estimation results demonstrate that the GRAS model has better explanatory power and more robust...
