Akinunde Muairu Oyewale, Shangodoyin Dahud Kehinde and Kgosi Phazamile Inroducion Non-linear ime series models are increasingly becoming very popular his is because several financial asses canno be modeled by pure linear processes. I seems o be generally acceped ha many economic variables follow non-linear processes. The regime swiching models are paricularly popular in he commiee of non-linear models, i is of inereso sudy regime swiching models wih GARCH specificaion, in his paper GARCH model will be augmened wih STAR model vis-a vis xponenial auoregressive GARCH (AR-GARCH), ogisic smooh ransiion auoregressive GARCH (STAR-GARCH) model and xponenial smooh ransiion auoregressive (STAR- GARCH) model. Disinc feaures of GARCH model and is exension lies on he fachahey have abiliy o capure volailiy clusering, for insance, if he shock from he previous period is high or low, large or small he values of will cerainly have an effec on is variance. Smooh ransiion auoregressive (STAR) models are applied o ime series daa as an exension of auoregressive models, in order o allow for higher degree of flexibiliy in model parameers hrough a smooh ransiion. So also STAR models are inroduced according o Terasvira and Anderson (99), Granger and Terasvira (994) and Terasvira (994) because of he exisence of wo disinc regimes, wih poenially differen dynamic properies and hahe ransiion beween he regimes is smooh. STAR models allow economic variables o follow a given number of regimes wih swiches beween regimes achieved in a smooh and coninuous fashion and governed by he value of a paricular variable or group of variables. The ransiion parameer denoed by s,, c is a slope of parameer ha deermines he speed of ransiion beween he wo exreme regimes wih low absolue values resuling in slower ransiion. I should be noed ha s,, c are generaed by daa series. Two commonly used ransiion funcions are he logisic auoregressive (STAR) model and exponenial auoregressive (STAR) model. However, exponenial auoregressive (AR) model from where he STAR was generalized will be sudied along wih hese wo radiionally sudied models. In he non-linear GARCH model, he condiional variance is expressed as a non linear of lagged residuals. In he STAR models, he non-lineariy is inroduced via eiher logisic or an exponenial ransiion funcion. The non-lineariy in his paper is linked o exisence of bid-ask spread in he currencies being exchanged. General Represenaion We define he general represenaion of STAR model as: y x G y,, c x G y,, c (),,,...,,,,...,,,, is he error erm Where x y y y p i0 i ip i disribued as independenly and idenically wih mean zero and variance. Gs,, c is he ransiion funcion bounded beween zero and uniy and hus allowing for a smooh ransiion beween regimes.

Smooh Transiion Auoregressive-GARCH Model in Forecasing 3 Now, using he lagged endogenous variable, he various forms of STAR models are as follows: The logisic STAR model is expressed as ( exp + y exp y c y y y c j d j j j d = y G y G () The exponenial STAR model is of he form + y y c y y j exp y d c j j j exp d = y G y G (3) The exponenial auoregressive STAR (AR-STAR) model is of he form y y exp y y y exp y + j R R j j j = y G y G (4) For large values of he parameer, he logisic funcion G converges o one when y d c 0 when 0 he STAR converges o an auoregressive model of order p. The STAR shows slighly differen paerns wih respeco. For large values of, he exponenial funcion G converges o one for values of y d below or above hreshold parameer c. The AR-STAR is a modified form of STAR wih d 0. Base on he aforemenioned condiions, he STAR model offers he possibiliy o invesigae he presence of non lineariy in ime series daa which may accoun for he weakness of GARCH model menioned in chaper four, and wihou loss of generaliy we can srenghen he GARCH model wih STAR models by adjusing he error erms. The STAR GARCH model is proposed by combining equaion y wih equaion (), (3) and (4) o ge y = y G y G (5) j j y = y G y G (6) j j y = y G y G (7) R R j j Which are AR-GARCH (5), STAR-GARCH (6) and STAR-GARCH (7) In general, he STAR-GARCH model proposed for he sudy is of he form y = y G y G (8) Where j j G is he varying smooh ransiion funcions defined in equaions ( hrough 4)
