Research work examines the accuracy and forecasting performance of volatility models for

the KES/USD exchange rate return in Kenya using the EGARCH and TARCH. In fitting

these models to the daily and monthly exchange rate returns data collected from CBK which

extended from the period January 2008 to December 2015, In this study, performance of

Time series models ( asymmetric EGARCH and TARCH models) in forecasting the

volatility behavior of Kenya FOREX market was examined. Daily FOREX rates data,
