Abstract
We develop order T-1 asymptotic expansions for the quasi-maximum likel ihood estimator (QMLE) and a two-step approximate QMLE in the GARCH(1, 1) model. We calculate the approximate mean and skewness and, hence, t he Edgeworth-B distribution function. We suggest several methods of bi as reduction based on these approximations.
