    Abstract

    Mixture autoregressive models provide a flexible framework for modelling time series. These
    models capture conditional heterogeneity, multi-modality, skewness, kurtosis and heavy tails using
    only standard distributions as building blocks. We show that the maximum likelihood estimator
    (MLE) of this class of models is consistent and asymptotically normal. We also give applications to
    estimation of financial risk.
