This paper establishes the strong consistency of the maximum likelihood estimators of the parameters of discrete- and continuous-time Markov branching processes with immigration. The asymptotic distributions of the maximum likelihood estimators of the parameters of a Galton–Watson branching process with immigration are also obtained.

Recently Tanaka and Satchell [11] investigated the limiting properties of local maximizers of the Gaussian pseudo-likelihood function of a misspecified moving average model of order one in case the spectral density of the data process has a zero at frequency zero. We show that pseudo-maximum likelihood estimators in the narrower sense, that is, global maximizers of the Gaussian pseudo-likelihood function, may exhibit behavior drastically different from that of the local maximizers. Some general results on the limiting behavior of pseudo-maximum likelihood estimators in potentially misspecified ARMA models are also presented.

Financial data are as a rule asymmetric, although most econometric models are symmetric. This applies also to continuous-time models for high-frequency and irregularly spaced data. We discuss some asymmetric versions of the continuous-time GARCH model, concentrating then on the GJR-COGARCH model. We calculate higher-order moments and extend the first-jump approximation. These results are prerequisites for moment estimation and pseudo maximum likelihood estimation of the GJR-COGARCH model parameters, respectively, which we derive in detail.
