Professor Stephen Taylor

Emeritus Professor

Research Overview

My research interests are in Financial Econometrics, particularly theoretical and empirical research related to (1) high-frequency price observations and (2) the prices of options. I work on asset price dynamics, volatility models and forecasts, risk-neutral and real-world density estimation.
