Time series data are often collected on more than one variable and it is then important to analyze the interaction and co-movements of the series of interest.
The analysis may shed the light on any casual effect that may exists among the variables. In this course, there will be explained models such as Vector Auto Regressions (VAR), and Vector Auto Regressions Moving Average (VARMA) , ARCH and GARCH models and their multivariate counter-parts. Techniques for estimating parameters of the models and testing the causality among the variables will be investigated as long as the concept of cointegration between time series.
Financial applications will be discussed.

The software R will be used for applications.
