AbstractThe estimation of time series models with heavy-tailed innovations has been widely discussed, but corresponding goodness-of-fit tests have attracted less attention, primarily because the autocorrelation function commonly used in constructing goodness-of-fit tests necessarily imposes certain moment conditions on the innovations. As a bounded random variable has finite moments of all orders, we address the problem by first transforming the residuals with a bounded function. More specifically, we consider the sample autocorrelation function of the transformed absolute residuals of a fitted generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic model. With the corresponding residual empirical distribution function naturally employed as the transformation, a robust goodness-of-fit test is then constructed. The asymptotic distributions of the test statistic under the null hypothesis and local alternatives are derived, and Monte Carlo experiments are conducted to examine finite-sample properties. The proposed test is shown to be more powerful than existing tests when the innovations are heavy-tailed.
