Abstract

This paper reviews some of the phenomenological models which have been introduced to incorporate the scaling properties of financial data. It also illustrates a microscopic model, based on heterogeneous interacting agents, which provides a possible explanation for the complex dynamics of markets’ returns. Scaling and multi-scaling analysis performed on the simulated data is in good quantitative agreement with the empirical results.
