ARCH Models for Financial Applications

"Numerous articles on the Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedastic (ARCH) process, an increasingly popular financial modeling technique, exist in various international journals. Now Xekalaki and Degiannakis (both statistics, Athens U. of Economics and Business, Greece) provide a thorough treatment of the ARCH theory and its practical applications, in a textbook for postgraduate and final-year undergraduate students which could serve as reference work for academics and financial market professionals."
