Abstract

We show that the CUSUM and LM tests for structural change in the volatility process enjoy monotonic power. The framework is general including many recently proposed non-stationary GARCH-type models. The result is in contrast to the well-known issue of non-monotonic power for the CUSUM-based tests for changing mean. Simulations and an empirical example provide further support.
