Fuure reurns are frs forecased usng pas reurns and GARCH (General Auoregressve Condonal Heeroskedasc) models. A Real Rsk Weghed Prcng Model (RRWPM) s used o esmae fuure sysemac rsk among oher parameers and deermnes he fuure coss of he porfolos. Forecased random error s hen calculaed as a random varable and used o deermne probably densy esmaes of porfolos marke rsk. Ths enables fuure acual marke rsks of porfolo nvesmens o be derved hence faclang proper fuure nvesmen decson makng. Keywords: Marke rsk; GARCH; Probably Densy Esmaes; Random Error. JEL Classfcaon: G.0 Inroducon Recen years have seen a surge of neres n economerc models of changng condonal varance. Probably he mos wdely used bu by no means he only such models, are he famly of ARCH (Auoregressve Condonal Heeroskedasc) models nroduced by Engle (98). Researchers have frufully appled he new ARCH mehodology n asse prcng models. For example, Engle and Bollerslev (986) used GARCH (,) o model he rsk premum on he foregn exchange marke and Bollerslev e al (988) exended GARCH (,) o a mulvarae conex o es a condonal CAPM (Capal Asse Prcng Model) wh me varyng covarance. However her resuls show ha shocks may perss n one norm and de ou n anoher, so he condonal momens of GARCH (, ) may explode even when he process self s srcly saonary and ergodc Nelson (990). Acha e al (008) revealed ha he GARCH (, ) model provded a good explanaon of he dynamcs of he marke reurns bu faled o obey he effcen marke prncple ndcang ha here s marke rsk. Ths paper uses a RRWPM as deermned by Anyka e al (00a) ha avods he exploson of condonal momens of GARCH (, ). Wh hs model he relaonshp beween he acual and esmaed values wh GARCH forecased me seres daa s almos perfec. Wh he deermnaon of oal forecased rsk usng he RRWPM he assumpon of an effcen marke need no be upheld. Secon oulnes how reurns of a porfolo of socks are forecased usng he GARCH (, ) model, secon uses forecased reurns n secon and RRWPM o deermne forecased fuure cos and oal rsk. Secon 4 calculaes esmaes of whe nose usng an esmaor derved by Anyka e al (00b) and deermnes probably densy esmaes of he porfolo sysemac rsk usng he Gaussan kernel, secon 5 surveys he process of usng he forecased reurns wh he RRWPM o resul no fuure real cos of capal and oher parameers. Probably esmaes of fuure porfolo rsks are esmaed as well as acual marke rsk. Fnally secon 6 summarzes wha has been done and concluded based on he resuls..0 Forecasng Reurns usng Garch (, ) ARCH models make he condonal varance of he me predcon error a funcon of me sysem parameers, exogenous and lagged endogenous varables, and pas predcon errors.
