  • Abstract
    This paper, taking the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) Composite Index as the sample, constructs ARCH models under the assumptions of normal residuals and non-normal residuals and compares the forecast performances of volatility of normal and non-normal ARCH models and the performance of VaR measure to demonstrate the effects of the distribution assumptions on GARCH model´s forecasting ability and risk measure.
