At times of great uncertainty for financial markets, this course provides participants with an understanding of the time series methods involved in modelling and forecasting financial markets volatilities. Participants will learn how to build, estimate and assess alternative models of volatility of financial time series. Each concepts will be explained from an econometric perspective and by means of many examples and applications in Eviews or Oxmetrics

Whether you deal with forecasting at a Central Bank, public institution, bank or consultancy firm; or you use forecasting techniques in your research, this is the perfect course to bring you up to date with the latest methods in the forecasting profession.

The aim of this course is to provide participants with an in-depth understanding of how a good MSc dissertation should look, and how to easily use Stata to obtain any required econometrics.

Participants will receive a free temporary Stata license, as well as a recording of the training session, that will be live for 30 days.

The course is meant for any MSc student writing their MSc dissertation, who needs guidance on the best structure, and most suitable econometric methods to apply. No previous knowledge of Stata is required.

• How to structure your dissertation
• Abstract and introduction in depth discussion and examples
• How to get a smart literature review –discussion of successful examples
• Build, estimate and forecast from linear regression, time series and panel models using STATA
• Understand and critically present and discuss your results

Presented By: Prof. Sir David F. Hendry, Dr. Jennifer Castle & Dr. Jurgen Doornik

Castle, Doornik and Hendry deliver this new course to our schedule which provides an introduction to the theory and practice of econometric modelling of climate variables in a non-stationary world. It covers the modelling methodology, implementation, practice and evaluation of climate-economic models.

Time series data are nowadays collected for several phenomena in social and empirical sciences. Initially collected at year or quarter level, time series data are now used by marketing analytics, financial technology, and other fields in which data are collected at much smaller intervals (daily, hourly and even by the minute). This course focuses on the fundamental concepts required for the analysis, modelling and forecasting of time series data and provides an introduction to the theoretical foundation of time series models alongside a practical guide to the use of time series analysis techniques implemented in Stata 15. The course is based on the textbook by S. Boffelli and G. Urga (2016), Financial Econometrics Using Stata, Stata Press Publication.

The 2020 EViews Summer School comprises a series of 5 1-day courses running consecutively.

The courses are to be delivered by Prof. Lorenzo Trapani of the University of Nottingham. All courses will teach econometrics from an applied perspective and demonstrate techniques using EViews 11 software.

Our Stata Summer school provides a very popular and flexible course framework allowing cost-effective attendance at any course separately, or the entire school. This is a great opportunity for students, academics and professionals to expand their econometrics skills and learn how they can apply econometrics and statistics from professionals pioneering research at the forefront of their specialist fields.

For the first time, we will be running our Summer school entirely online, so you can join from the comfort of your home, anywhere in the world.
